Not that this should affect your decision, but we are Illinois residents and Iowa is slightly less expensive with the same merit aid you got and the Excellence in Engineering award than Illinois would have been. Of course, they don’t have the guaranteed four year tuition like Illinois. My son didn’t apply to Illinois because it is too close to home, also his composite ACT score didn’t start with a 3, but I did check out how much it cost because all the relatives want to know why a kid would go out of state when they could go to a fine institution like University of Illinois.
