This school was over all a really good place to consider there are many people around every corner to help if you have any questions. They have a lot of food options and is overall a good college to walk around, they have a great supportive group for games!

Baleen - 08/01/2024

My opinion of University of Indianapolis is that it is a great university. Some universities that I have visited are mostly boring and they don't have great professors. The campuses are really big where you can get lost pretty easily. Here at University of Indianapolis, there are great professors. They are sweet and they are always excited to teach students. I have made great relationships with my professors, especially for engineering. The campus is small which is great for me since I won't get lost. They are so many clubs activities and sport events to attend. They have great food and great dorms. There is one problem. The tuition cost of this university is expensive since it is a private school. Overall in my opinion, this university is great.

Jotan - 11/18/2023

University of Indianapolis FAQS

    The fall 2020 acceptance rate for University of Indianapolis is 86%. That means, out of _____ applications received in 2020 , _____ students were offered admission. The number of males who applied was _____ vs the number of females which was _____.

  2. What should every freshman at your school know before they start?

    First, I would advise the parents to provide support to their children while making a choice on a college. Sometimes teenagers need a little push in the right direction. Help the teenagers set up college visits and go with them. Showing interest in their schooling and helping them fill out forms will make the process less stressful. For all students, I recommend finding a college that best suits them. Try not to worry about how far away it is and how much their parents will miss them. Listen to others suggestions, but in the end make a decision based on what the student wants and needs to be successful and have fun. Begin early searching for the school best suited for the the student. While in college, I recommend the parents to continue showing support and be ready for many break downs. I suggest that all students do not procrastinate and balance their time between fun and school work. School work is important, but it is also very important to not be depressed by so much work that one forgets the importance of being in college.

    The close proximity within downtown Indianapolis is nice. The school is fairly small so it tends to be easier to build relationships with your professors to develop internships or to just have a good standing with your professor. The business and nursing programs are quite active; there are many clubs related to those fields and many ways to get involved for prospective nursing and/or business students.

  9. What's the most frustrating thing about your school?

    The most frustrating thing about my school is how difficult the general education courses are. I feel like I can't concentrate on my classes required for my major because the general education courses take up alot of credit hours and the school puts so much emphasis on these courses. Despite how small my school is, many of the professors are difficult to reach outside of class and do not look to make the learning experience more personable.

  10. What's unique about your campus?

    The best thing about my school is the fact that it is a smaller campus. A normal class has no more than 25 students, which is very helpful for students who need more help in certain subjects. The professors are all very good at what they do and are always very open to helping if a student needs help. The fact that the campus is small also helps in the social aspect, it is much easier to form closer friendships when you see certain people all of the time.
