Indiana University-Bloomington Top Questions

Anyone who is interested in having tons of opportunities to: gain knowledge on subjects from arabic to enigmatology to zoology, surround themselves with friends from numerous backgrounds, and participate in a plethora of extracurricular activites. But most importantly, this school is for people who either like big campuses that share the same qualities that small colleges have to offer.

A self motivator, that needs a challenge in their lives. Loves to socialize when not working for their grades. Has an open mind about different cultures, sexes, races, sexuality, and all other forms of the things that make us who we are. Someone that wants a degree that is powerful in their chosen field when they graduate. A person that wants to attend an advanced campus in technology. Someone that wants to create memories about their education, and the people that they have been around for their time on campus.

Someone who is willing to be outgoing and likes to be around large groups of people is the kind of person that would flourish at Indiana University. They should be tolerant and accepting of people with different religions and sexual orientations, as well as people of other racial/ethnic backgrounds. A person who is upbeat and social will get along with people here well, and one who is able to balance that with a focus on academics will be successful and stay here.

Someone who doesn't mind large class and an active social life.

Being from South Florida, I for one can say that anyone should be able to attend this school. However, since it is a big school, I would advise that only those who are accustomed to bigger, busy environments whould florish here. That is not to say that if you are from a rural area that you wouldn't do well. You definately have to be outgoing and indpendent and have a strong sense of self. You have to be someone who knows who they are and you have to know what you want to get out of your college experience.

Someone self-motivated and ready to go to the top of his/her class.

Any kind of student. It's a big school, but you should be able to find a comfortable social group no matter what you study or have as hobbies. There are dorms that have folks that get picked up to go to frat parties on fridays, there are dorms where they serve vegan food and have pornography theory screenings on weekends, and everything in between. There is a relatively good art school, which an inspiring art museum, designed by an interesting and famous architectur. The Buildings and interesting, many, and varied. The majors/concentrations are vast.

I do not believe that there is a "type" of person who should attend Indiana University. I feel my school offers opportunities, both socially and academically, to almost every "type" of person. Because it is such a big school, there are many different niches that one can find comfort and soladarity in. There are many different scenes to become a part of and always the option of not being a part of one particular scene and doing your own thing.

Someone who wants to experience things they never new existed, and someone who is open, and excited about new and different things

Extremely social, and patient

Someone with an open mind to diversity and who likes to meet new people and make new friends. I strongly suggest that they not have anything against large classes because most lectures are around or well over 50 people.

Someone who likes being around a lot of people, but not in a big city setting.

Somone who is willing to explore new experiences as well as meet new peaple and accept new ideals.

People who like to party and have fun. Also, business majors.

Someone open to people with different views and ideas. There are a lot of people with extremely different views and ways of life. It is also a large campus with lots of students, so anyone wanting to attend this college should be open to meeting new people and establishing relationships on the campus. It's kind of hard not to, because although there are lots of people with different views, there are students who can relate to one another. Most important, it should be the kind of person that knows how to balance school and social activities.

People who like to have fun but also care about academics. The campus is big enough to have all types of people, but usually, the focus is more on social life. Most people here drink and party, but there are other activities organized by campus organizations and other organizations that does not involve alcohol.

Anyone can.... it is very welcoming and a warm place to be

Really, I believe any type of person can attend this school and still feel comfortable. We have a taste of the city and the country here. The environment in the city and on-campus is very laid-back and friendly, which I think accounts for the wide-variety of people that attend the college. However, I think anyone who wants to succeed in their life and is willing to grow and learn has a better chance of succeeding both at this campus with peers and to feel comfortable in this city.

Someone who likes to have a good time in college

Someone who likes lots of people with lots of activities and is not afraid to get involved. They need to be strong in what the believe, because everyone here has an opinion, and some of them are really messed up.
