To get in to this university, all you haveFeb 21 2013School of Information
To get in to this university, all you have to do is fill out a simple application. Everyone gets in. I challenge anyone to prove that statement wrong. This school has such a low enrollment rate, funding, and graduation rate that they will let anyone in and the application is just a formality. No one who has graduated from SIU can really prove that they have really accomplished anything because anyone who shows up to class will graduate which means that it's impossible to determine who is actually "educated" and who is an idiot.

It's not terribly hard to get inFeb 20 2012Communications
It's not terribly hard to get in. I transferred there so my ACT's were not that important. I had a high B average when transferring so it was no problem. Although if I went straight from High School I would have gotten in. I had a 21 ACT, and a B average. If you don't have at least an 18 ACT, and C average you shouldn't be going to a big college right away.
ACT: 21 Male
