Both academically and spiritually. The professors tend to put themselves out there to make sure the students are actually learning and understanding what is being taught. And if you are in need of some spiritual advice or guidance, you will find many of the profs willing to listen and help.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
First off is the friendly atmosphere, from the dorm rooms to the classrooms. In addition, there are plenty of opportunities to have fun with friends, with the many planned social activities on top of simply spending time with others - watching a movie in the campus theater, hanging out at the fountain, playing some racquetball, etc.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
Being a private school, its more on the pricey end, but the quality of education, for both basic and major classes, holds itself up to its cost. As I said before, the professors usually will go the extra mile to help a student learn what he needs to if the student is willing.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
*Look into as many of the school scholarships and grants as you can. Even though attending is a bit pricey, IWU offers quite a few different scholarships that can help cut tuition down to a more manageable size.
*Make certain that you will be fine with having to attend chapel three times a week. I've seen this ruin what would have otherwise been an o.k. year for some of my friends who didn't like being required to go.
*Don't be afraid to approach your professors for extra help, as most would be more than willing.
*Try to get off campus every once in a while. While it is quite possible to go the whole year without doing so, there are several interesting places to go around Marion, and it will add a little spice to everyday campus life.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
*Christian
*Hardworking
*Social
*Those in a spiritual crisis. You will find yourself surrounded by people, both staff and students, who are willing to help see you through.
