Someone who loves God - that would be helpful as it's a Christian school - and someone who is willing to be proactive about their college experiences and take ownership of their lives. Also important, someone who is not anticipating traditional college partying.

Julie

Students who are dedicated to their Christian faith and seeking to grow in their faith should attend Indiana Wesleyan University. Students should also be seeking challenges yet success in their scholarship. Indiana Wesleyan does not have a diverse student population, so ethincally diverse students looking to attend Indiana Wesleyan University should keep that in mind. People who enjoy partying and drinking are, in general, looked down on at this school; student seeking to get away from parties and drinking should attend.

Joy

Christians who are looking for a school that makes faith a part of every day life would enjoy going to this school, but not everything is perfect, even for a Christian school. There is a definite hipster culture, and stereotypical home-schooled, Republican, idealistic views reign among students for the most part. Those wishing to study in the arts or ministry will do best here, for business, science, or other majors I would suggest checking out another school.

Ashley

This school is for students who are interested in attending classes and getting an education. It is not a party school. Freshmen have a curfew and are expected to be in the dorms by curfew.

Kenny

Though having a personal realtionship with the Lord is an aspect in which most should have at this school; the kind of person I believe should attend this school is one that is hard working and willing to put forth effort towards acedemics. He or she should have an open mind to new experiences and strive to seek out new opportunities as well as relationships. This person should also be coming with the mindset that he or she is going to change through their experience and realize that this is a good thing.

The "kind" of person that should attend Indiana Wesleyan University is a person that believes that their behavior impacts the world. IWU is a Christian University. Although anyone can attend, Christianity is researched critically throughout the course work. Learning Biblical truths can help anyone realize historically, that their life has a purpose. If they have already decided to live a Christian life then they can grow and mature spiritually and learn furthur how to be a world changer. As our society is becoming more global, this is a perfect time to decide where you stand.

Really, if you can keep up with the academics and keep the moral standards, anyone should attend this school. This is a good school. This school eases intellectual and spiritual growth considerably. For those who don't know what they want to do, the school can provide a lot of help with this decision, including an entire required class, and the school has a variety of majors to choose from. Even though it's expensive, it is still cheap for a private school, and there is a lot of financial aid available. This is a good school. Anyone should attend.

Abbey

Is there such a thing as a certain kind of person for IWU? I don't think so. The only thing a student here needs is the willingness to abide by the rules. Outside of that, any kind of person can study and grow within these walls. There is so much more to this University than a stereotype of a person.

A person planning to attend this school should be willing to invest energy and time and they must be willing to make sacrifices (e.g. with money, time with friends versus time in school work), as any mature human being should realize.
