Is there an equivalent to the Illinois Promise for other Illinois publics that are not UIUC? I did a brief search, but everything keeps going back to UIUC. If OP wants accounting or finance, and Gies is not a sure-thing (though certainly a possibility), then I think we need to find some options that are extremely likely admits that will also be affordable. And may I just say, that the Illinois Promise is an awesome deal for eligible students.
Since OP spelled out “Illinois” in his first post, I went ahead and changed IN to IL in the bracketed part of the title.
