<p>*Also, DePaul has offered me a 50 grand scholarship, while UIUC isn’t known for really giving out scholarship money. </p>
<p>I know financially DePaul would be cheaper,*</p>
<p>If you’re instate for UIUC, are you sure that DePaul would be cheaper?</p>
<p>$50k in scholarship money is about $12k per year. </p>
<p>DePaul</p>

Room and board: $11,335<br>

<p>Minus $12k in scholarship…remaining basic costs: about $30k per year</p>
