Hello! I am a sophomore at IUPUI studying forensic science and biology. One of my main complains is the cost of attendance. However, I do love my major, it is a rare major, which is why I chose IUPUI over other schools. Most of the professors have been fairly accommodating over the past year and a half. IUPUI has many clubs and organizations to choose from and has a beautiful campus. I would highly recommend IUPUI if you are a commuter. I wish IUPUI would add another parking lot or garage, it seems like certain lots are impossible to find spots in after 9 am. There aren’t a lot of dorms and downtown living can be pretty expensive. Also, this year I have noticed an increase in crime on campus and it seems like IUPUI kind of puts issues on the back burner. Hopefully, that will improve soon. Overall, IUPUI is a good school and I have somewhat enjoyed my time so far.
I've only just committed to attending IUPUI this fall, but so far my impression of them has been absolutely fantastic. Their website is easy-to-use and infinitely practical, their support staff is timely and efficient, and they've offered me plenty of financial aid. I also love that the IUPUI student portal has a directory of thousands of IUPUI-offered scholarships to apply to. The faculty and students are wonderfully diverse, and everyone has been so welcoming to me thus far. IUPUI is a community of working professionals, so the party scene is blessedly small, and it's located in the downtown of a city with a million people, so there are plenty of internship opportunities. I would highly recommend attending IUPUI; go Jaguars!
Now that I have attended other colleges I can safely say that IUPUI was the worst experience. They are very disorganized - which made me worry that all colleges would be as bad.
Pros- They have a strong campus life that gives you a "college feel"
Cons- the course material is not fit for many learning styles. There are a lot of large class sizes that can make it difficult to concentrate or have questions answered. Applying the knowledge and skills learned should go beyond memorizing simple terms.
For a college that is in a central city location and prides itself in being commuter-friendly, they lack adequate parking. The cost of parking your car (if you are lucky enough to find a spot) is absolutely absurd. Other colleges offer free parking or much more affordable options.
Have a class you want to take? You probably will need 5 alternate courses and end up with the worst one from your list.
