"EIU was the school that aligned with my post-graduate career goals along with my undergraduate networking goals the best out of the schools I considered. The size of the campus, the location of the campus within dense greenery, and the goal-oriented mindset of the professors I spoke to when considering Eastern truly drew me in and solidified my decision for EIU."Jayla SingletonBiological Sciences | Class of 2027
