Admissions

Continue to work hard in high school and at the same time be well rounded. University of Indianapolis is very big on volunteering and believes in serving. To increase your chances on being accepted go out in your community and serve.

Classes are small enough so you can get to know your professors pretty easily, and they are totally open to getting to know you. Decide your major early. What ever it is, they get you into the field during your freshman year. Don't feel like you have to live on campus, because there are alot of housing options close to the school. Get to class early if you don't want to walk a mile just to get a parking space. They are building new parking lots now, but there is also construction on Hanna Ave, right in front of the school so it kinda slows things down.

Don't be afraid to get to know your professors. It's really alright if they know your name. Also get involved on campus; there are many different opportunities available for you to use.

Be prepared for a smaller campus, which is nice if you are looking for a more personable environment. There is good school spirit for athletics, so don't be afraid to join in!

Look for outside scholarships to help pay for the costs of school. Get involved with student ran organizations but also professional organizations. Check out options like renting and buying used textbooks.

I would recommend prospective students be ready to write a lot. Try not to procrastinate, although we all know everyone does it. Don't eat too much of the same food from here all the time. It starts to get to the point where you won't eat it anymore.

Sign up for the Campus Camp-In event! This event is an overnight visit and you get to stay in a dorm with a student from the University. It is a great way to experience what it's like to live on campus. At least 100 incoming freshmen students attend this event. I met my roommate and made many new friends. Get out there and see if this school is right for you!

If your high-school circumstances were unconventional, and particularly if they were less than ideal, be willing to explain those circumstances and why the problems that held you back will not be an issue in college. They WILL work with you.
