I'm a Biochemistry major at IUP and am a rising senior.

College is what you make it. At every university, there are professors, students, and programs on both sides of the spectrum (the spectrum being good to bad). IUP has its fair share of both. However, if one decides to take advantage of the good and weed out the bad, the college experience at IUP can be a great one. Many of the programs excel in their fields, leading in research and helping students further their education after graduation.

Indiana may be a small town but there is a little of everything if you're willing to search for it. I feel that anyone could find a place to fit in at the university in terms of friends, clubs, and organizations.

There are good professors and not so good professors but you will find that at every university. The key is using the good professors to your advantage, getting to know them, and getting involved in your program. Many of the professors really do want to see you succeed.

I have really enjoyed my experiences at IUP and cannot wait for another year.
