Student44, may I recommend you to spend some additional time reading online resources? I am afraid that your information is quite lacking in regard to the diversity situation and the availability of courses.

That said, you should not “betray” your heart and go with it!

For instance, UIUC diversity is:
88% In-state students
12% Out-of-state students
0% Part-time students
49% Women
51% Men
<1% American Indian/Alaskan Native
13% Asian/Pacific Islander
6% Black/Non-Hispanic
7% Hispanic
68% White/Non-Hispanic
4% Non-Resident Alien
2% Race/ethnicity unreported
