A University of Illinois freshman hit the jackpot Thursday.  Juliana Knopp won $10,000 for tuition. Collegebookrenter.com gave her the prize.  Knopp registered on the company's facebook page.  She was one of thousands who entered to win.

"It's really cool. I feel absolutely a huge weight lifted off of my shoulders," Knopp said. "I'm out of state, so it helps a lot with everything."

It's the first time the company gave away the prize.
