The teachers here are generally really nice and easy to talk to. Sure, there are those certain professors you watch out for, but so does every college. The professors I've had so far are really easy-going for the most part, and made transitioning here from high school very smooth.

Being here is awesome. Simple as that. I am generally a shy person, but living on campus has really given me the opportunity to meet awesome and various people and make new friends. In my lodge (yes, lodge. The housing here is amazing) people come over and we play board games and watch movies and we all just hang out. And if I ever need anything, I know there's someone here to talk to. The campus in it's entirety is very pretty. There's a lake and is laid out well for semi-weekly walks or runs. The pond is also really pretty to look at, and I get a view of it from my dorm. Just watch for goose poop when walking during the months the geese are here at the pond.

There are a TON of activities on campus for people to do. You get a good education and make plenty of friends, but that's not all that's makes a bang for your buck. There are many free events like dances, speeches, magic shows, concerts, lodge activities scheduled almost weekly by your CA's (Community Advisors). Most of which is free, and if not free, at least discounted. There's always something going on here!

If you are like I was and are nervous about large campuses, not looking forward to being just a number, fear not. The campus is small, and yet is spacious so you don't feel cramped. And the class sizes here are small, and all of my professors know me by my name. My largest class is my German class, which has maybe 20 people or so. It really is a great experience, but you have to experience. I suggest visiting here and seeing the campus for yourself.

It is a very beautiful, small college. It feels very close to home. It is not too much different from high school though.

Consider fully all of your options. Do not be afraid to go for something bigger. This school is awesome, but I bet IU Bloomington is better.

The class sizes are relatively small. You get one on one attention. Learning here is not too difficult.

This does not apply to me. However, they are building on a 3rd dorm, so I suppose the demand is growing. Furthermore, this school is beautiful, I'm sure the housing is too.

You can not use your debit card.

Louisville is less than 15 minutes away. There are many restaurants close. Our campus attempts to have fun activities.

For less than half of the money you get an IU degree.

Cool clock tower,2 mascots (Hoosiers,and grenadiers).
24 hour computer lab.
Multiple ponds with a lot of geese.

Family oriented.
Broke.

Any club or activity you are interested in is available. If it isn't, make one.

Multiple sororities and fraternities for those interested.

Police station on campus with24-hour patrolling. Many police phone booths. Very safe.

Great instructors. In all the time I attended, all of my classes were taught by MA's or PhD's. No grad students, yay!

Beautiful campus.
Many activities for resident AND commuter students.

Excellent value for in-state tuition.

I have been challenged by the teachers and professors. The classes are very interesting and a lot more fun than 15 yrs ago!!

I have been generally accepted by all - teachers, classmates, school staff. I am a 42 yr old returning student and fit in just like I was 22.

I am from Hillview (Bullitt County, KY) and I still pay the in-state tuition charge for IN! It's a great value and a whole lot cheaper than the Louisville schools. It takes about 25 minutes to get to class, and parking isn't too bad if you hit it just right.

Make sure to check on-course a lot and your email for events and happenings. Get to the parking lot early and park on the back side and walk through campus. The campus is beautiful and has over 33 different types of trees. (I took Geography 307 this summer with Dr. Galvin!!)

If you are an older student and need to get back in the saddle, this is the place for you. The adult student center is a great place to hang out and Kim Pelle is a great asset for you to use. The staff in the admin offices are great and helpful, too.
