Indiana University-Purdue University-Fort Wayne is an amazing school! The moment I stepped on campus I knew it was the one for me. This is my second year attending, and while the world's circumstances have made it a little difficult, the faculty has all been very active in helping students adjust. I changed majors during my first year, and the advising staff were very helpful; they were willing to talk to me and give me information about the majors they advised and help me find the one that fit best. The professors can be a mixed bag, but you get that at any school. Most are very involved and will do anything to help their students--whether that be with things within their class or outside of it! The students are fun, classes are interesting, and overall I don't regret choosing this school at all. I'd choose it over any other in a heartbeat!
I love it here. In my personal opinion you have to get yourself involved to have fun. If you don't seek opportunities to have fun and meet new people you will not. But I think that's everywhere. I think that the staff is very open if you need help you should ask. If you do not they will never know if you need it. It's a quiet place but there are a ton of events and clubs to get involved in. You just have to look and they are not hard to find.
Overall, it is a great campus. I loved it after one visit and I would recommend it to anyone. It's not only a beautiful and safe environment; it is a beautiful and safe environment that always has something going on. So, being bored really shouldn't happen.
It is a good school especially for the cost and the location, it provides many opportunities to the community and the region. I am grateful for the education it has afforded me.

Knowing what I know now I would have never quit college the first time because it is the hardest thing to get back into college. I would definately go back and redo everything. I would go to class and work my hardest on my school work. I would encourage all my friends to stay in and do there best. I am ready to get a degree and start a career and raise my child.
my classmates seem to be friendly for the most part and seem to rank close to where i rank in most categories.
Small campus with the assests of a large university; filled with love and encouragment to keep you wanting to succeed.
i dont think there is a type that shouldnt, there are many diff. types here and no one seems to be singled out.
I would have to say the diversity. There are so many different kinds of cultures and languages.
Being a branch of Indiana and Purdue University.
I think the worst thing about our school is the fact that there are no dining halls. There are restaurants within the campus that are national and local chains, but there are no food plans available. They have plans to add one in the neat future, though.
That alot of adults use this school so they can get better jobs so alot of the classes or filled with older people instead of kids my age.
Seeing that i come from Gary,Indiana its very different being around a variety of different people. Different cultures, ethnic backgrounds, and colors. It has lots of programs for students like me whom are unaware of what to expect coming into college. I was a first generation student so it was helpful.
That the professors do not take the classes very seriously.
From the area. Want a small school. want to feel safe on campus.
I really do not "brag " about my school as I am unhappy there. Previously, I was attending another local but private university which I really enjoyed. However, I became overwhelmed with the cost of college each semester and found it difficult to concentrate and make decisions. I thought that going to a less expensive school would solve a large portion of my stress. However, that was not the case, and in fact has created even more stress to my life as I have found that the majority of staff at this school do not seem to care about the students.
Its a good school that is continuing to grow and expand. They are learning as they go.
