Indiana University-Bloomington Top Questions

IUB is an amazing school. It has everything-- gorgeous campus, great social scene, nationally noted academics and countless successful alumni, etc. It has everything you could ever want in a college experience. There is no doubt that there is a place for everyone at IU to be happy. If if you don't like big schools, you can make it feel small. The only thing I wish IU had was more science-related clubs and organizations, but that's why I love SOS :) But when I say it, I mean it. IU has something for EVERYone!

Don't go here unless you have excellent scholarships or a lot of money and unless you know you can afford all of the hidden fees.

GO IU!

The food is terrible.

Although partying is a big part of IU, there is a lot more fun stuff to do. But getting fucked up and going to basketball and football games is great. IU was the perfect school for me.

The party scene at IU is right up there at the top with Wisconsin. While this is a research institution, with 36,000 students it's hard not to have a crazy night life. Of course as an RA last year, I got to see the pitfalls of excessive partying: alcohol poisoning, arrests, and drunk streaking. In the fall, tailgating at the football games is probably the best experience. In the spring, Little 500 weekend is the best weekend of the entire year.
