This is a great school if you’re somebody like me who didn’t want to go to a huge school but also didn’t want to commute and still live on campus and have amazing accommodations and opportunities for the success of your education.

Best School in Indiana! 6 counties in Kentucky pay in-state tuition. Best Dorms Ever!
Overall 4.9
Such a beautiful and small campus!!! Staff cares about you as an individual, and will go out of their way to make sure you succeed! They will even walk up to you and ask how everything is going, how your classes are, etc. Love!

IUS dorm is like a apartment not like a dorm. Small campus which is what I want. Staff are friendly and very safe campus. Not a party school so if that is what you want then IUS is not for you. Beautiful campus and I love it here. Always easy to fine help if you need it. Close to Louisville KY. and Cheapest University I found. I love it here.

Amazing! Always keeping you up to date, and most professors are very kind and respectful.
Overall 4.6
Beautiful campus with mostly amazing teachers. Lots of majors offered, and the advisors are absolutely top notch. Most of the dorms are practically brand new (built within last 5ish years) and the cafeteria has way more than you could ever imagine. Downsides... Parking can be very very confusing your first time there. Don't get a parking ticket.

Great school and a great campus atmosphere.
Overall 4.6
Great school!! Close to Louisville, Ky and other surrounding areas with great social life availabilities. Safe campus. Over 85% of the teaching is excellent. Can be kind of dull and boring if there is nothing that interests you or going on. Overall, this campus is an excellent 4-year college and great for the tuition price!
Overall 4.5
Tucked away in the hills of Floyd Knobs,. Great spots to gather with friends and study and eat lunch, both indoors and out. The food service provides a wide assortment of foods from breakfast through dinner (options with Subway and Papa John's as well) Clean and safe. Professors and staff that care. Plenty of opportunities to get involved.
Overall 4.5
I love IUS. The people are great and I have made lifelong friends as well as received a great education.

Easy classes taught by part time faculty, students who don't care, nothing to do on campus, nothing to recommend.

They just want your money. Bad professors. No help at all.

Ivy Tech is cheaper and a better school.

Look, this place is basically just a high school. There is nothing you will learn here that will help you in any way in the adult world. All they want is your money. Bully professors, mostly adjuncts. Do NOT go to school here. Seriously.

I hate this school with a burning passion. Professors suck. No social life. Students are lazy and unfriendly. I have never been so miserable in my entire life.
Overall 1
I was very optimistic when I first transferred to IUS to finish my second degree but ended up being disappointed as each semester repeatedly proved they are ill equipped to provide meaningful education in today's world. The advisers are uninformed about their own programs and most professors need remedial courses in teaching and public speaking.
Overall 1.3
Going to IUS was the worst mistake of my life. Nothing to do here. Campus is like a ghost town. Faculty are arrogant and unhelpful and the reputation as Grant Line High is deserved. I am transferring to USI. BTW, IUS campus is NOT safe.
Overall 1.4
The campus is boring and the layout is less than desirable. The professors are not that great and boast tests that are unnecessarily difficult, especially in the business department. IUS works to fail students in order to gain a reputation that is comparative to the Bloomington branch. The clubs are jokes unless you were an outcast in high school.
Overall 1.9
Few opportunities, few clubs, few worth-while people. This is your basic commuter school. Cheap and easy.

If you are a serious student and care about your education and future career, please do yourself a favor and DO NOT come to this college. The professors are very unprofessional and many are incompetent. They will be hostile with you if they find out you made any complaints about them and they always find out. Save yourselves!
