Academic Support

The University of Indianapolis inspires excellence with a personal approach to education and a commitment to academic quality. UIndy's classes are not taught by teaching assistants. Instead, outstanding professors interact personally with students in small classes that allow for each student to receive individual attention.

Students on our campus are fully supported in their academic studies. The beautiful library building has four floors with ample facilities for research and study. More study areas are provided in every academic and residential building on our fully wireless campus. We have specialized Math and Writing Labs for students to receive tutoring on their studies. In fact, the University offers free tutoring in any subject area. Our Academic Success Center assists undergraduate students in becoming self-determined, motivated, and independent learners by providing opportunities for growth. An independent English as a Second Language program offers a full range of classes on our campus.

Indiana: America's Heartland

The state of Indiana lies in the Midwestern region of the United States. The Midwest, also known as the Heartland of America, is one of the safest, most affordable areas in the United States. The local people of Indiana, called Hoosiers, are famous for their hospitality and traditional values. In Indiana, we experience the beauty and variety of seasonal changes with average temperatures of 23C in the summer and -2C in the winter.

Our campus is located in a safe, suburban neighborhood in the city of Indianapolis, the state capitol. Indianapolis (called Indy by the locals) has a population of around one million people. Indianapolis combines the professional and recreational opportunities of a large metropolitan area with the safety and convenience of a smaller city. Our city is ranked by Forbes as one of the most affordable in America, and is one of Money Magazine's "Best Places to Live."

Indianapolis is an increasingly international city, and hosts a number of ethnic organizations, festivals, markets and restaurants. There are also several temples, mosques, and churches ready to welcome students of many faith traditions. Students enjoy convenient travel during school breaks, as Indianapolis is just a 30-minute drive from a major airport, and a three-hour drive from the transport hub of Chicago.
