What impressed you positively?

The Indianapolis campus is large and has lots of nice facilities.

What impressed you negatively?

I REALLY don't like the satellite campus. Being from California, Indiana is already a culture shock. Don't really want to be stuck in a tiny-tiny town.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The hotel situation. I got ripped off at a piece-of-junk Marriot hotel. It was "close" to the school but not walkable. Might as well borrowed a car and drove there.

What are your general comments?

There was a large group. They tell you a lot about the university but nothing about the satellite campus. Since half of the students end up in the satellite campuses, this is a very LARGE issue.
