"The small-town environment, low student-to-faculty ratio, and availability of a pre-veterinary program were the main reasons I chose EIU. Plus, a trusted friend personally recommended I apply. They were my insight into campus life and informed me of the positive professor reputations, financial aid opportunities, and the availability of support services on campus."Eva ApodacaClass of 2027, Biological Sciences major
