Indiana University of Pennsylvania-Main Campus Top Questions

Everyone that I have met seems pretty nice. Although of course there are the few fraternity brothers that arent so nice, but that is to be expected, right?

Did not experience the student body as a full-time student.

I have experienced a LOT of different people at IUP, and you will too not matter which college, or university, you plan to attend. You will be put into situations where you don't think something is right or you're uncomfortable, but as long as you respect others they will respect you. I have befriended many people from different backgrounds, different religious beliefs, and various sexual orientations and they are some of the greatest people I have ever met. The way I look at it: If you can't handle the differences that the college experience presents how are you going to make it in the "real world"?

I've noticed that more and more studnets are coming from rural areas such as Philladelphia and Pittsburgh. They probably like the idea of small classes. There are a great many of financial backgrounds present, IUP is a fairly inexpensive school and that is really nice for those who cannot afford a high tuition bill. People wear a lot of different things to class. Some of them are student workers so you see a lot of khakis and polo shirts. Some like to dress up and some like to wear sweatpants. Most of the people you see, though, are wearing jeans, a t shirt, and maybe a hoodie.

we are diverse, and unique we have more international students than i thought the university would have.

I don't seem to have any problems with any of the student body. They have a lot of hot chicks.

As a commuter, I don't have much interaction with students outside of class, but in class there is no visible friction and everyone seems to get along. There are also a variety of political views, at least among students and faculty in the Political Science major, and probably everywhere else.

All kinds of students interact with everyone.

Working on campus has allowed me to interact with all "different" types of students. Honestly, I can't think of any "type" of person that would feel out-of-place at IUP.

While most students are from western PA, there's also a alot of other students, from out of state, and many exchange students. It's a very diverse and interesting campus where I believe anyone would feel comfortable. I've never seen outright discrimination at IUP.
