How to Apply

Is IUPUC the right fit for you?

Personal attention, mentorship, and support are cornerstones of the IUPUC experience. With small class sizes and a close-knit community, students receive one-on-one guidance from faculty, strong peer support, and easy access to an array of hands-on research opportunities and community partnership programs.

Despite its small footprint, IUPUC’s campus is a unique environment with notable architecture, art, and sculpture features. Nearby (non-university) housing offers the opportunity to live within walking distance of campus, but students who drive from elsewhere find easy parking and a sense of home away from home.

More to consider

  • 89% of IUPUC students are from the surrounding region of south-central Indiana.
  • The average class size at IUPUC is 15 students.
  • 73% of IUPUC undergraduates are full-time students.

All statistics are current as of 2019.

My time at IUPUC has been so fun. I’ve been able to get out of my comfort zone in group projects, done an internship, and even became a substitute teacher. I’ve grown tremendously as a student and as a person here.

IUPUC offered me the best financial situation out of all the schools I applied to, while still providing access to almost all of the degree paths I was interested in. I learned that a good education doesn’t have to mean crippling student loan debt.
