"EIU, to me, is one of the best local opportunities for continued education that we have access to in Coles County. Tuition is affordable, it is close to home, and being a student there gives me a sense of connection to my local community that would not necessarily be present at more distant universities. Likewise, being an employee of Sarah Bush Lincoln Health Center, there are multiple scholarship/financial aid opportunities available to me through my employer that also played a large part in my choice in university."Colby FilipiakNursing (RN to BSN) | Class of 2027
