It’s a really good school as a student I’ve never seen bullying only light name calling at most

I love it. Can't wait for my daughter to attend. My friends daughters loved it and hot a great education and the teachers are the best.

There’s a lot of bullying at this school, and staff does a poor job of addressing it. The same students continue their behavior while others come to school feeling scared.

This school has some of the most discouraging and unsupportive staff I have ever encountered. During the college application process, my family was facing a serious financial crisis, so I asked for an application fee waiver. Instead of helping, college advisor Nathan Bargar tried to discourage me from applying to the school I cared most about, UIUC. In an email, he told me: “If you can’t pay a $75 application fee, what is going to happen when you have a $35,000/year college bill?”That comment was insulting, dismissive, and completely inappropriate to say to a student asking for support. Rather than encouraging students to pursue opportunities, he made students feel embarrassed for their financial situations and acted like certain schools were out of reach.What makes this even worse is that I ended up getting into UIUC with a full-ride scholarship. Meanwhile, I know students who avoided applying to schools they were genuinely interested in because staff made them feel uncomfortable, unsupported, or incapable.For a school that claims to care about student success, the environment is incredibly demotivating. Passionate and hardworking students deserve advisors who uplift them instead of staff who project limitations onto them.
