I HAVE A KOOCH
Answer 2 :
He need to figure out (you can help, btw) which college is the best fit for him. Because while I might tell you that, of those, Indiana is the highest ranked (or not), rankings are trumped by fit. He must go where he thinks he'll do well. Cost and etc. does come into play as well. If he's in-state Illinois, for example, you can let that sway you. In terms of most rankings list (because it can be a factor), they rank as follows, top to less-top: - U Illinois Urbana Champaign - Indiana U - U Alabama - Auburn Of those, Illinois is, like, 35 places above Indiana, which is maybe 20 places above Alabama and Auburn. But all are strong schools. U Illinois is a much higher ranked school that the others, though. And then consider his major - if he's engineering, for example, I'd strongly suggest he to go U of Illinois, which is one of the best undergrad engineering schools in the US. So there's a lot to consider. Prestige. Fit. Cost. Etc. You can help him think through all this, but he really is the one who needs to make the final decision.
Answer 3 :
What type of degree is he planning to get? Also, what are his extracurricular interests??? Athletics, etc. I would choose the university that offers the best program for his major and interests.
