IU SAC Reviews

They have great summer classes for high schoolers and middle schoolers

Have many members of my family have gone here, but not to nice

I don't recommend sending your loved one here. If you define a friendly university as giving out parking tickets then having no understanding then this is the university for you. I know someone who broke down on the highway and it costed over $500 in repairs. They borrowed a loaner a day or two and got a ticket. The ticket was paid for$50 and they refused a refund. I've been to other universities without all the parking patrol red tape headache. Driving a loaner, no problem, notify office and they will look over it. Get a ticket, no problem. Call and notify security and they will disregard it until you get your other car back. Not here. It's a red tape online appeal system that is useless. $50 for a parking ticket. That's ridiculous! Crooks and thieves!

Indiana University offers a wide variety of classes in many subjects taught by very knowledge faculty.

Indiana University has the top notch IT facility as well as research-oriented faculty members. It is a great choice for graduate school.

Big thumbs Down! I went here for a semester and this school doesn't serve its students but its own wallet! Find another school if you want to be respected by your teachers and the administration. The campus is beautiful, but the grounds keepers are better than the actually school's staff.

Such an amazing school with a relatively large beautiful campus! Indiana university and especially Kelly school of business is ranked number 1 in the entrepreneurial field of studies. Indiana offers hundreds of academic programs across multiple campuses and online.

One of the greatest university in USA. Indiana University has a big location for their major in university

If you hate education but love becoming the worst possible human being, Indiana University is for you! Stare at pitchforks all day while everyone lies to you because they possess zero actual information of any sort. I studied martial arts (ruined a martial art) and looked up conspiracy theories. Then I went across town and got a degree that actually matters from the local 2-year college. Two full ride scholarships and direct admit for premed? No thanks IU.

Good while you are there, not so good after you graduate. If you go, the only schools worth going to for jobs are The Kelley School of Business, Informatics School , and Speech and Hearing. Degrees from those schools guarantee jobs. However those jobs will probably be in Midwest and Chicago area, with such uninspired behemoth companies recruting for run-of-the mill ( non-fast track) positions at Ernst and Young, Deloitte and KPMG. (The top Big 4 PWC does comapratively little recruiting at IU) - Consumer Goods are also big on campus- Coca Cola, General Mills, Monsanto, Kellogs, Altria, etc. But who in their right and ambitious mind would want to work in in a dull accounting or consumer goods company? The College of Arts and Sciences career office is a joke. And the business school only allows their career services to be used by business students. I only went to IU b/c I got a full-tutition scholarship and now regret it. I should have paid a ;little bit more and gone to a top school in New England/ Northeast, since it is very difficult to get a fast-track job at a blue chip firm with an IU degree without proper connections. If you are dreaming of landing a job at such blue-blood firms as Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Lazard, Bridgewater Associates, General Electric, McKinsey, BCG, Bain Capital, CE Shaw, Bloomberg, Perella Weinberg, Warbug Pincus, Brown Brothers Harriman, Citadel, Evercore Partners, Apple, Amazon, Berkshire Hatahaway, Blackstone, Blackrock then look elsewhere. These firms sometimes do come to IU, but they hire about 1 student, who already has connections to the firm in some way. Even for a genius at the top of their game the climb to a job at the top firm will be an uphill battle to someone with an IU degree. Average students with average ambitions will find the school comfortable and will be happy with a boring, run of the mill midwestern job.

I'm so lucky to have grown up in Bloomington and to have gone to this wonderful university! Such a beautiful place filled with really great people!

The campus is like a piece of art. Thanks for having me!

Beautiful construction, large and beautiful gardens. A place of ten.

Very lovely looking place with good variety of beer. Variety of food as well. Maybe too random? But it's good :) at least nothing to complain about.

Ah well. You can't bring your dog.

Beautiful campus. Love the limestone buildings especially, makes for a lovely aesthetic.

It's my alma mater, so I'm biased. However, I must say that campus is gorgeous and very student-friendly. There are areas to rest and relax. Wonderful wooded areas and picturesque locations along Jordan Creek to chill and hang. Buildings are very beautiful, and full of history. A wonderful place to go to school.

Currently attending IU, and have absolutely no complaints. Coming from a small suburb of Chicago, I was the only one in my HS graduating class to attend IU. Just like every other freshman, I was terrified of not finding my "place" but it was no problem at all. The university is huge, yes, but they offer so many activities and clubs for you to join that it immediately becomes smaller. It's extremely easy to find friends because everyone is insanely nice. Even in the worst weather, the campus takes your breath away. Loving it here.

Best university. The campus is so beautiful.
You don't realize how few trees you have around you until you've lived in Bloomington... so many trees and flowers everywhere--it's like living in a garden.
And castles everywhere...the limestone architecture takes you away to a romantic time and place. You don't see cookie-cutter houses and mall parks everywhere. It's a little pocket of Indiana that is nothing like the rest of Indiana.
The student population of Bloomington is the majority, which makes for intelligent neighbors. Also more young people than old, so there's a certain energy and vibrance about the city.

Come here if you have a very specific thing in mind that you want to do, like Kelly or Jacobs. I got admitted into the Global Studies school and I absolutely love it! Lots of amazing opportunities and intelligent people. I don t know what I d do without that though. If you come here exploratory (or otherwise), don t just sit around waiting for something to happen. IU is a big place with lots of opportunities, so you should find something to commit to. Otherwise you ll be bored out of your skull. Unless you re a party animal, then you ll be just fine. This might not be relevant to everyone, just my thoughts.

Love the campus! So much history and beauty.
So many students are willing to help for anything you need. Everyone seems so nice, even the squirrels.
Food on campus is good too.
Would recommend a walk around the campus.

5 stars all around. The education, location, student body and the extra curricular activities are all amazing and can honestly say that the years spent in Bloomington where truly one of my favorites... If you do decide to attend, you WILL NOT be let down.

Great business, music, and environmental studies. Beautiful campus.

It has one of the most beautiful campus in the world's universities.

It is a place of excellence! Calm, welcoming, full of culture, clean air and ideal for those who want to study seriously! As the mother of one of the teachers, I feel enormous pride!

Beautiful place. Just passing through, I got lost here on Google Maps

My Sister go s here and she loves it it is so AMAZING love the history

Indiana University Bloomington is located at rural place. Surrounded by conservative and racist, small minded people. The education is decent, but students are very likely to struggling find jobs when they graduate. I would recommend go to somewhere like NYU or UCLA. Stay away from Midwest.

We took a tour around the school and I have to say I was impressed.there a lot of history behind the university.

The only reason I give this four stars and not five, is because it's not Harvard or Yale, or Ivy League. This University is awesome, it's the number 1 party school, and the number one research institution! Loved it! BA Economics, 2003.

Very good school with a lot of choices for kids to find what they want to do for a career.They make sure they have the best of everything including research too.

Wonderful university to attend. I love Indiana University. My only regret was not going there all 4 years in college (transferred there). This is easily one of the most, if not the most, beautiful campuses out there. Staff and students are all friendly and the Big Ten culture is great! GO IU! Go HOOSIERS!

This school provides a sub-standard education while promoting an atmosphere of inequality . They have failed to govern and act in the best interests of each student. I would not allow my children to go to this school!

A world class institution for the arts and sciences.

Great and Beautiful University! Especially the Music school is TOP 3 of United States!

Indiana University is a special place for me. I've been a student and an employee during my time in Bloomington., IN. Despite all the ups and downs I have truly fallen in love with IU. There is no campus like IU anywhere in the United States. The majesty of the limestone buildings and the constant sense of activity when school is in is unique to IU. All I recommend is to question your reality at the University. You are one of tens of thousands and you have to look out for yourself. Take your time going through school, and don't get caught up in projecting the power and majesty of the IU campus onto yourself. It is up to you to make your own way. The university will help you, but don't rely on it to define your career. Always think critically, but do so with a smile and an understanding that person-hood can get lost in the shuffle at an institution as large as Indiana University.

I met bunny there, and was a great school experience.

Greatest school and most beautiful campus in the nation. Don't think about going to college anywhere else. Your time spent at Indiana University-Bloomington will be the best years of your life.

Beautiful place. Fresh air. Beautiful campus. See the forests and loose animals. I only went for a walk. The university is very well cared for. It is beautiful. It is worth studying in this place. Out of the noise and stress.

Good quality of faculty for Business School. Bloomongton is a nice peaceful town.

Of course, this is the best university and the best college town, nationwide :) Go IU

Took the tour with my 17 year old daughter. Beautiful campus. Quiet feel. Could be updated a bit inside the dorms and buildings. But a great looking school nonetheless.
