What impressed you positively?

What impressed you negatively?

"The building that the anatomy lab was in was kind of old and not very nice looking. It was certainly functional, though, and appearances aren't the most important thing. I'm also not sure how I feel about the 9 different campuses throughout the state." Report Response

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

"I wish I had known how much construction there was going to be on campus! It was kind of difficult to find parking. They're doing a lot of building right now (which is good), but it makes the IUPUI campus kind of a madhouse. " Report Response

What are your general comments?

"I have a very positive experience. The day was well organized by the staff and I had extremely little time just waiting around. The Financial Aid sessions was a bit long considering how little they actually had to tell us. My interviewer was probably in his late 70s and was the nicest guy ever! We just had a casual conversation with some "standard" questions thrown in. I'd definitely be happy attending IU. " Report Response
