Sabrina - 03/25/2023

Ivy Tech is a school that works incredibly well with those who need flexibility when creating a schedule. I was able to go into night classes as a full time student and was still greeted with amazing quality and attention. The classes are smaller when taking night classes, but the professors are just as dedicated and eager as if they were working with a typical day class. Additionally, the staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. Any staffmember I came across was more than willing to answer questions or help in any way they could. The school is overall a good choice for someone who is looking for an easy-access, equal opportunity, and affordable education.

Grace - 03/09/2022

I think that it is a good school. It is important to keep in mind that most of the classes are online. So, there is not much of an "on campus life." But, my professors have all been nice and I think my education here so far has been pretty good. If you want to save money for your first two years of college or want an associate's degree, I recommend Ivy Tech

Tanisha - 06/08/2021

It’s hard to transfer to a 4-year college when you complete an associates degree. Some class sizes were big, mostly the for general classes. It was hard for me to meet people at school, since it more of a commuter type college. Overall I would recommend people to go to this school.

Angie - 05/23/2021

I think Ivy Tech is a good school for working adults, they usually offer classes that work with your family life/work life. It is also cheaper for us to afford. I know it works well for me financially. I am in the nursing program so that makes it a bit more difficult since nursing classes are already set up with the times so I have to adjust my schedule.

  2. What should every freshman at your school know before they start?

    If I could go back in time and talk to myself in high school, I think i would tell myself to create a habit of not procrastinating. I have a bad habit of waiting until the last minute to do something, and when it takes a lot of time to complete i get really bored. This causes me to do things poorly. So, i would tell myself to get on top of things early and keep it that way.

  4. What's unique about your campus?

    My school is a great school to attend if you are a working student or a parent. They offer many classes in every field during different times throughout the day and week. This way the students don't feel limited and won't miss out on the classes they would like to take. They just started midnight madness classes this semester to accomodate for those people who are busy throughout the day. Some do not like to take online courses and would rather be taught in person. That's why these midnight classes are beneficial.

  14. What's the most frustrating thing about your school?

    The thing that is frustrating is that they eliminated all student services at the Lawrence campus on Saturday. Having the financial aid, bursar, and academic advising available at the Lawrence campus really helped students that work during the weekdays. If I need to do something adminstratively, I will have to go the North Meridian Campus, which is very hard to do because of traffic.
