Indiana University was definitely the cheapest option of the schools that I considered. However, this was not the main reason why I chose I.U. What I.U. had over the other schools was its individualized attention on me. By this I mean I.U. offered me multiple programs to enhance my education. The most notable of the programs offered is the Integrated Freshman Learning Experience (I.F.L.E.). I.F.L.E. is a six week summer program before freshman year where partcipants work in actual research labs. This experience has easily increased my interest in the sciences.
