“Regarding music education, that's what I feel theSuper BrilliantMusic Education
Regarding music education, that's what I feel the music program is good for. If you're going for composition or performance, I don't think I'd stay here for that. I don't think the courses have challenged me enough, and I feel I need to supplement some of my training with independant studies, particlarly in the sight singing and dictation field, where atonal studies are actually avoided. The written theory is fine though.

“IUP is a pretty cool place.BrightGeography and Geosciences
IUP is a pretty cool place. Like they say, its big- yet small. In my major, class sizes are about 11-15 and my department probably only has 30-40 students so its very close and friendly. We know all our professors and have them for more than one class. The university itself is nice, the campus is very pretty in the spring and fall, though it snows and rains all the time. The surrounding town isn't very big, so don't come if you hate towns. There is stuff to do if you find it and go to it. Otherwise, if you just complain and don't look for something to do- you'll be bored. Oh and also= the night life is good.

“I am so happy I picked this school.Bright
I am so happy I picked this school. IUP is benificail when it comes to resources and aid. The people on campus are really nice. It's a little school but seems big. It's so little that you can know someone is a new student :). I like that about IUP---To every high school student or thoses who are thinking about looking for a school to go to--Just come to IUP, someone will know you new than you can be treated special :)
