• They are awesome with so many fun events & activities round the year. There are almost 12-20 campuses & the entire town is our campus, to be honest! There are faculties of all the domains. Homecoming, basketball matches & Thanksgiving are highlights. There is a pre-exam relaxing week as well, which has numerous fun activities. IUB fair has its own beauty!

• Apartments.com and college whatsapp groups were a good source, I would say. Also, Bloomington is a small college town so the search area becomes smaller and I would definitely recommend staying on the east side, which would be the best. There is good bus connectivity all over the campus & different apartments, which are free for students.

IU has a whole lot of extracurricular activities like intramural sports and carnivals. Moreover, the recreational sports centre offers various sports where you can go with your friends, rent out equipment and play for as long as you want. Lastly, the Herman B Wells Library is one of the best study spots on campus. It has rooms one can book for free to study with friends, a Starbucks as well as an eatery.

I had a double sharing room, which cost around $8000. The first-year students are required to stay on campus. I was in a standard room, which cost less. However, advanced rooms are costing around $10,000-$12,000 USD. The main difference between them is community washrooms and a private washroom.

Amazing! A lot of events keep happening every day. There's something for everyone. The sports facilities are top notch and the campus has very scenic and green spots to chill because it is a huge campus.

Off campus housing is usually cheaper for international students. Apartments could be anywhere from $500-$1100 a month/per room depending on your state. The higher end is for places like NY and California. Cheaper states would include Indiana, Georgia, Texas etc. Utilities add up to $100-$200 extra. Try taking a individual room instead of sharing(if that's in your budget), it really helps in building focus in the long run.

The campus life is well balanced and there are lot of places to get involved in. There are multiple events and extracurricular activities taking place on campus all year round. We have a club involvement fair in the beginning of each semester for students to explore them and join them if they are interested. Wifi is free on campus and is available in all the buildings at all times. There is a huge sports facility with almost 50 different sports and a gym area. There are 3 main libraries on campus with a wide variety of subjects and books available.

In the first year of college I was living in on-campus housing, where I shared a room with one more girl and had a community bathroom with 18 other girls. The rooms were quiet big and spacious and my roommate was also very sweet and friendly. After the first year I moved to am apartment off-campus with 2 of my other friends and am currently living in a 3 bedroom and 2 bathroom apartment with them. The average rent here is $800 which needs to be paid monthly without the utilities which could cost an additional $30-$40.

There are lots of opportunities to get involved on campus in a large variety of clubs. Clubs range from not competitive at all to very selective , it depends on your interest but there’s a lot of opportunities regardless. There’s three main sports facilities and a large focus on athletics, so students have a chance to play many different sports. There’s also a lot of research facilities and two main libraries for students to study at and get academically involved.

If you’re living in a dorm you can look to spend an average of 5000 USD per semester. If you’re living in an apt, leases are getting expensive so you can look to spend an average of 900 USD per month for rent. If you’re living in an apt you will also have to pay for utilities unless provided. Meal plans cost 4000 USD in a year but you can opt out and buy your own groceries.

It is mandatory to stay on campus for the first year and the total dining and housing costs would add up to $8000 per semester.

I chose this university for its business school. Its business school - Kelley School of Business is ranked among the top 10 business schools in the USA. Additionally, this university was relatively easier to get in without sacrificing a good education program.

There are on-campus accommodation facilities. The rooms are mostly shared, but sometimes students may be allotted single rooms. However, off-campus housing is a better, more flexible and cheaper option. The average rent for a 1 bed 1 bath apartment is 600 USD/month. If you want to share your apartment with someone, the average rent for a 2 bed 1 bath apartment is 750 USD/month. This is very affordable given that the stipend is about 1800-2000 USD per month and overall cost of living is low as compared to rest of the US.

I chose to this university because it has great faculty working in the area of my interest (Functional Analysis and Operator Theory). At IIT Delhi, we follow books written by authors that have worked/studied at Indiana University. In fact, my current supervisor (Prof. Hari Bercovici) at IU was my top choice because I was inspired by a book written by him. His research credentials are amazing and that’s what matters the most in PhD. The university’s math department ranks 34 and it’s situated in Bloomington which is a very pleasant place to live. I also had offers from - University of Oregon, University of California (Davis) and NYU(unfunded).

I used to live on campus and the facilities are like the average dorm, nothing too special. I paid $8500 a year and although it may not have been worth the money, it was a decent place nevertheless.

The Kelley School of Business is a well-ranked business school in the US which is why I chose Indiana University and after speaking to current students and their positive reviews, I chose IU.

I chose Indiana University because I loved the campus and the location of Bloomington. I also chose Indiana University because they're psychology program is well known and I knew I'd be able to succeed.
