UIC is a very good school, but it stands in the shadows. There is bias against the school, for whatever reason. What you will discover is that UIC is a tough grading school. It grades harder than UIUC, and that shocks a number of Urbana transfers. At UIC, C is average. Also, UIC will not hold your hand. You are pretty much on your own.
The average UIC students has an ACT of 24 and high school percentile rank of top 24th percentile.
UIC is a top ranked health care college and is very competitve in business, engineering, sciences, social work and urban planning.

UIC is a very good school. The only common thing they have with UofI is that I think they have the same board of directors. Otherwise they function as two completely different schools. So you won't find much more comparing them than you would between any other two schools. It is very good though :)
