What is unique about this school compared to others I considered is that this school is a communiting school, meaning most students live off camous. This school is also located right in downtown Indianapolis, which can be quite entertaining.

IUPUI is located directly downtown, ideal for the city girl in me. I also live right outside of Indianapolis so I don't have to spend thousands of dollars extra to live in a smelly old dorm.

My school offers a variety of hospitals to obtain a diverse amount of experience. Our clinical schedules allow the students to try different areas and different types of hospitals so we can really determine where we want to be after graduation.

It's extremely diverse.

What is unique about IUPUI is the campus is small all the buildings fit on two streets but there is over 30,000 students that are enrolled. IUPUI is a commuter school, so it is hard to get involved and have people stay on campus. Those are the downside as to why it is unique. People come to learn that is about it. But IUPUI is also the third largest growing campus in the US. It does have a lot of potential to be a great a school and they have a lot planned out to add the schools campus.

Every fall IUPUI has a Regatta to kick start the beginning of a new year. The Regatta is a canoe race down the downtown canal. I believe this is very unique to our campus because not very many college campuses are located in the heart of a major city where they can race down a canal.

The urban campus is really unique to IUPUI. It's great for being close to all the action. It only requires a short walk to get to downtown Indianapolis, and even living off campus makes for a relatively short commute. There is always something going on and something to get involved in.

The campus has 4 hospitals, 4 libraries, and several building promoted by several different schools within IUPUI. There is also a canal close to the campus. The hospitals have a train called the "People Mover" going to Methodist, Riley, and University Hospital. The train also goes over the different fast food places that are near campus. The campus is close to the JW Marriot Hotel and you can very downtown buildings on campus as well.

Attending Indiana University-Purdue University-Indianapolis (IUPUI) for my undergraduate was the best decision I ever made. While the school is seen by many to be a commuter and hence lower class school, the quality of education, the emphasis on applied research and importance placed on community engagement is unmatched in other programs I have since encountered. Faculty and staff are incredibly supportive of student reseach, and push students to challenge the field and present their research nationally and even internationally. Professors work well together and embrace an interdisciplinary approach to mentoring, and form close professional relationships with their students.
