Review of University of Southern Indiana

from Westfield, IN

Describe your college in three sentences.

USI is a wonderful school academically and socially. The professors and faculty here are dedicated to ensuring we receive the best education and will be prepared for our careers once we graduate. It is also just a wonderful environment to be a part of with so many great people on campus to make friends and tons of organizations and clubs that offer fun and exciting events.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Just like any other college, you get out what you put in at USI. It's easy to fall behind in classes if you aren't dedicated to your schoolwork but so long as you put forth an effort you will succeed. Coming to USI is a great opportunity to form relationships with professors and faculty because with smaller class sizes it is easy for them to know students by name. Making connections like that help to further your goals because the faculty here love working with students here to build resumes and will happily work with you on projects or write fantastic letters of recommendation so long as you make the effort to stand out from the crowd.

Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?

College classes aren't meant to be easy and they won't be but here the professors want every student to succeed. They don't ask for an unreasonable amount of effort and are always willing to work with you if there's any impediment to your academic performance.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

The dorms here are fantastic! They're large, clean, and have private bathrooms. USI has a system to pair you with a roommate you will get along with and will help you with any issue that may come up.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

As a smaller campus, the food options are somewhat limited. The cafeteria and restaurants available however, have excellent quality food for a reasonable price and it is easy to get out into Evansville when you need something else.

What’s there to do for fun at your college?

USI is located right on the edge of Evansville, which is a fairly large city. This means there is a ton of stuff to do at all times! Not only does USI have a ton of clubs and organizations that are constantly holding events but there is also always something to do in the city. Evansville has multiple movie theaters, malls, parks, and even its own zoo!
