What Students Are Saying
Food on campus is good, there is three main places to get food on campus and they have different operating times.
Omar from Aurora, IL
Food is OK but there is a WalMart pretty close together with some restaurants and the bus services comes right to the school.
Michael from Shelbyville, IL
Just like any other campus-the food gets old. Plenty of places to eat around Springfield.
Samia from Springfield, IL
The food emporium has restaurant quality food. Every year they have raised the prices on menu items since I have been here.
Christina from Saint Charles, IL
Springfield has the best food ever and if you get tired of it, you can always go off campus where there is actually some good restaurants.
Destiny from Springfield, IL
UIS has some great areas to get food, such as the Food Emporium, the Late Nite Grill, and Stars Loungue.
