I have been admiteed to both. UIUC offered me $24 000 and USF have just proposed me the same tuition waiver than UIUC.
I have decided to do a LLM because it would be a very good asset for my career but it is for me an important investment (I will get a loan),and my first concern is to have good courses in a serious class,and UIUC is better ranked than USF (23 v. 98...But USF is less expensive (from almost $10 000) than UIUC, and the city is more shiny.
However, I don't know if USF is a very good school. In addition the university seems much smaller than UIUC which seems to have a very big campus, which is an important element because I would like study in a university where I could have a lot a exchanges with students, in order to improve my english.
So, someone could give me some advice or could share his experience with one of these universities?
I must give my decision in few days and I have big trouble to make my choice.
UIUC, or USF
