Some of its online courses are the video recording, so there has no live lesson in this kind of course; however, it costs you $750 for the videos that you can find and learn from You Tube. If you have any comment and want to send it to the principle, don't even think about it. This person has no time to respond. Sigh!

No clubs or any fun events at WIU, so students don't have that much interaction going on.The campus is small and only has a small room for student to buy drinks and snacks from the vending machines.Computers and internet are very SLOW. Teachers are not as good as I thought. The campus is close to the home tho!Tuition is going higher and higher too.

Better want to go online as a student because the school has limited ground courses. Online is easy, though. I did not want to go online but now that I tried it --- I should have been online from the start. If you want to attend only ground courses, this may not be the best school for that purpose.The school just opened a new campus in Tempe AZ.
