USI is absolutely outstanding in every area. I am a freshman and I love going to the gym and using the free personal trainers. I also love all of the resources that are available to help get good grades such as Academic Skills.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
For all looking to go here, make sure you understand the meal plans before you choose one. Also, I advice being in a living learning community and living in the freshman dorms your first year- you will meet a lot more people and be closer to everything offered at USI. Look for scholarships early and take advantage of the Office of Financial Aid.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
I have been challenged in almost all of my classes. However, all of my teachers were more than welcome to help me at any time-including their down time. There are so many people here to help you achieve your academic goals!
Describe the dorm life at your college.
The dorms are AMAZING! That is one of the things that sold me to USI. They are all air-conditioned and carpeted. They are big and have a lot of closet space. You also only have to share a bathroom with your roommate only.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
Sodexo does an outstanding job in serving the USI students. There are many options of where to eat in the loft. There are also many places to stop and get a snack just around the corner from many of your classes. They have many options of where to eat and also have a convenience store right there on campus!
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
My roommate and I love to chill in our dorms and play games with other people on our floor. We also like to go play games at the rec center or go see the movies they play on campus.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
This school is SO cheap compares to other schools yet I do not know why because we have the nicest and BIGGEST dorms! The rec center is a huge advantage as well and offers Personal trainers to keep off (or lose) that freshman 15.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus
USI has an awesome Madrigal Dinner. It is the biggest in Indiana that the USI chamber choir puts on. It is a wonderful show around the holidays with great food. There are also beautiful trails on campus and a tradition to play capture the flag at the beginning of the year. The Library is another fantastic and unusual place to go.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Great for students who love to meet many new people yet do not want huge classes. There are about 10,000 students on campus which is a perfect size. Also great for students who do not like distraction from parties because there arent any on campus- only off campus.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
There are hundreds of clubs to satisfy every person. I am in Chamber Choir and I love it!
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
I have heard a lot about the greek life yet have not joined. It is great here at USI. It in not clique-based but rather based on family and academics.
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
WONDERFUL campus safety. I feel safe walking to my dorm at night because of all of the lights around and how secluded USI is. It is not in the middle of a big city.
