A student in my class told me she chose the University of Chicago over Yale and Harvard. I could not understand why she chose a state school with her near perfect SATs and perfect Grade Point Avg. What is so attractive about UIC to future politicians (that is what she wants to be)?

The University of Chicago, an expensive, highly selective private college on the southside of the city, has more Nobel Prize winners in Economics on its faculty than anywhere else in the world, including the government.
UIC is a state school that caters to Chicago-area students.

U Chicago is not the same as UIC. UIC is the University of Illinois at Chicago, which is a state school. U Chicago is a very prestigious school, one of the top in the country

The universtiy of Chicago isn't the same as UIC. That stands for The University of Illinois-Chicago. That is a higher standard college than the University of Chicago. Plus, it's also a Division 1 college, while the University of Chicago is likely a Div. 2 or 3 college.
