The Perfect Fit

Located on approximately 90 acres just 10 minutes from downtown Indianapolis, our students enjoy an urban experience at a small, close-knit campus. It’s small enough to get personalized attention but big enough to support a variety of diverse populations throughout. You'll enjoy smaller, more intimate class sizes where you will receive personalized attention from your professors. You won’t become lost in a sea of people throughout a lecture hall.

Student Organizations

Chemistry Club, Black Student Association, Food Recovery Network, Gamers’ Club, Student Organization of Latinos, Sustainability Club, UIndy Pride, Women in Leadership - these are just a sample of UIndy's 70+ Registered Student Organizations (RSO) you can choose to get involved with. Some are service-oriented, degree or academic-based, or special-interest focused, but all provide our students with opportunities to explore their interests, grow personally, professionally, or academically, develop valuable skills, and express themselves freely within a supportive community.
