Western Illinois University

I wouldn't recommend this college to anyone. Absolutely terrible staff. In all honestly how in the world is this place still operating?

Extremely lame. It's at the point where people from other schools are making fun out of students who attend WIU. Not a very positive place to be. When the school year is over they get really ignorant because they want there students to return home because they have no jobs out there for students.

very interesting how this crappy place is still open after covid-19. Even before that it was a complete dump

Nothing to do. Bad teachers/staff. Horrible Food. Safety is low with all doors to my building unlocked so get ready for police every night. Fire alarms constant. Internet goes out randomly. Clubs are hard to find. This school is cheap and that is the only quality that it holds itself to. Please go somewhere else. Community college would be better

As an online student, I am very unsatisfied with my WIU experience. I feel as though the classes are not up to the standards of a graduate program. My program was unorganized. I chose this university because the price was good, but I very much wish I would have done more research and gone somewhere else. I strongly recommend not attending wiu.

Worst experience I have ever had in life regarding my education. Professors are unorganized and do not care about the student. There is absolutely nothing to do in the middle of Macomb Illinois. The whole place looks like everyone does meth. And the school is dying more and more every year. I would never in my life recommend anyone to WIU.

Literally the worst school I've ever attended... The staff is aight. The location is TERRIBLE. No Uber or Lyft. Takes about 2 minutes to get anywhere because this town is so small, and I hope you like Walmart or HyVee because that's all the shopping you get unless you want to drive 3.5 hours to Chicago for actual civilization.

I transferred here from a community college and WIU has been disappointing. I should of done more research prior to coming here. The teachers are meh and disorganized. The opportunities are limited and non existent. Good luck finding a job or internship around here. The parking lots and roads around school are filled with pot holes. Waste of time!

I would not go here. I was an online student applied under the GEM program through Air University. I don't understand how this school falls under the General Education Mobile program and gets away with still charging its military students these excess fees.after TA school sent me a bill $400

Started at WIU, transferred to Iowa immediately after first semester ended - no competition in class. Now that I've completed grad school and worked a few years I realize why WIU has such a poor reputation, no ambition or work ethic among students.
