Categories Rating Comments Am learning a lot I've learned many things at Indiana Tech; but growing up Home-schooled, I've learned as much NOT in the classroom as in it. Indiana Tech is an excellent place to just learn about life in general, as well as the normal, expected academia.
Am enjoying being here I love attending Indiana Tech for school. Not only is my job as a Tutor there, but it get's me out of the house, and I truly enjoy the friendships I've formed with many of my regular professors there.
Bang for the buck Indiana Tech is EXPENSIVE. Being a Commuter student as opposed to living on-campus, I can't say that Indiana Tech is a very good value.
Tips for prospective students APPLY FOR PLENTY OF SCHOLARSHIPS!!! I cannot, repeat, CANNOT stress this enough!!
Great for these types of students If you're a very social person, this is the school for you. If you're a computer nerd, this is the school for you. If you're a basketball, baseball, volleyball, softball, or track star, this is the school for you.

Categories Rating Comments Will learn a lot I look forward to learning a lot if I am accepted into this college. Indiana Tech seems to be the place for me. Technology is a big part of my life and most careers involve tech.
Will enjoy being here Being away from home will do me some good. Hope to meet new people and make some cool friends.
Bang for the buck Indiana Tech might be pricey. But I think joining the service will help with the cost.
Tips for prospective students It is good to always be prepared. Make sure to research anything and every thing you can before you make your decision. Some decisions can only be made once.
Great for these types of students If you are into tech, sports, or meeting new people. Than this may be for you.

Brenna from Bellevue, MI

Categories Rating Comments Am learning a lot Indiana Tech has been great when it comes to education. My advisor happens to be my favorite teacher here because he puts so much time into teaching us exactly what we need to know when we head out into the work field. So many professors here make it their goal to educate us the best way possible.
Am enjoying being here At first it was difficult moving away from home, but at Tech I quickly found the very best friends I have ever had. The campus is small and personal and there's always something to do.
Bang for the buck While Indiana Tech is a little bit on the pricey side, it is definitely worth it! I do not know of many universities where undergraduates are allowed to be as involved in anatomy as I have been. The experiences I've gained in my classes definitely make this the place to be.
Tips for prospective students While adjusting to college life might be hard at first it will get better. Get involved in a sports team, intermural team, or even a Bible study on campus. It really helps to get you in with the right kind of people.
Great for these types of students Athletes, small-town teens, committed students.

Categories Rating Comments Am learning a lot The professors get to know you and help you out a lot. Which you will most likely not find at a larger school.
Am enjoying being here There is never a dull moment on campus, we always have an event going on that is put on by our very active Student Life group.
Bang for the buck Tech is definitely expensive, but worth every penny.
Tips for prospective students Apply for scholarships, ensure that your SAT and/or ACT scores are what you want them to be. Even if you only played junior varsity in high school, you should look into that sport here at tech. It is another source for a scholarship.
Great for these types of students Pretty much everyone.

Categories Rating Comments In three sentences Indiana Tech is a great school for one on one help. The teacher-student ratio is great. They are willing to help and campus activities are always fun.
Tips for prospective students It is such a small campus so be careful what you tell people. Try to get involved in as many campus activities as possible. It is a great way to enjoy yourself and meet new people.
Academic Rigor This institute takes attendance and assignments very seriously. The faculty is always willing to help but you have to come to class and be on time.
Dorm Life Dorm life is great. The way they are set up is amazing. All dorms are co-ed and big enough to party. The only building that is a struggle is Kalbfleish. There is no air conditioning and it is pretty small.
Food and Dining The food could be better but they try. The grilled cheese and pizza has to be my favorite. They try and give out as many options as possible. The dinning is pretty cool. The cafe is big enough for everyone and we can sit and just enjoy ourselves.
What to do for fun We have the rec center where there is Dancing, Bowling, Pool, air hockey etc. Also they come up with different activites every week for the students to have fun. Although, it is more fun to go to the put put golf and go karts down the street, maybe even krazy pins or laser tag is always fun.
Great for these types of students If you are big on God then you should join the choir at Tech. We also have FCA which is just fellowship of christian athletes. Also weekly bible study and church in the theatre every Sunday.
Clubs and Activities It is always great to get involved in clubs at Tech. It was only my first year so i do not know the names of many.
Greek Life i do not know much about Greek life. That is not my place of interest.
Campus Safety We have Securitas they don't do much but they can be very helpful. Fort Wayne police is always on top and ready if we need them. They occasionally come up to the school and make sure nothing is going on.

Categories Rating Comments In three sentences Indiana Tech has a fairly good atmosphere. The engineering program is par and rigorous. The non-engineering program...not so much.
Tips for prospective students Math math math! And science. Those are key for an engineering field.
Don't come here if you're going for something that isn't engineering or computer science. It's too expensive for the quality you're getting if you're a non-engineering student.Academic Rigor The engineering and computer science programs are both very rigorous, warranting a 5. As before, the non-engineering/computer science program... very easy, and it deserves a 1. Overall, a 3 when you take both into account.
Dorm Life Residence Life does a lot of events which makes it fun to be on campus. However, they do not do a very good job of placing you with compatible roommates.
Food and Dining Some days the food is excellent, others not so much. ...Like at the end of the year.
What to do for fun There's just so much to do! ITGS is usually running something, Residence Life and Student Life are running something, there's bowling, the theater, and Fort Wayne in general has a lot to offer, such as laser tag and gaming.
Bang for the buck Pretty much for the same reason why Academic Rigor is rated the way it is. If you're a non-engineering/computer science student, it's a waste of money, but if you are a engineering/computer science student, you couldn't ask for better, more helpful teachers. The Career Center is super helpful, you should make use of it!
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus This isn't really unusual, but for the biomedical engineers, we always look forward to the first cup of coffee brewed in our adviser's office of the semester. It reminds us that we're equals and will one day be like him.
One cool thing is that the Oropeza and Evans-Kimmel residence halls are mirror images of each other on the outside.Great for these types of students Engineering and Computer Science majors! You also have to be willing to work...and work...and work and be diligent in studies.
Clubs and Activities There's always something going on, and there are clubs for most tastes. Most importantly, there are professional societies so that you can start getting ahead in the professional world.
Greek Life There's not much of this, and I tend to stay away from it...
Campus Safety I feel very safe on campus, and Securitas is always ready.

Categories Rating Comments In three sentences Indiana Tech is a great school for student-athletes. If a student is completely sure they want to attend then it's the perfect school for them as long as their major is taught here. If they're not completely positive about attending they need to do research and decide carefully because credits don't transfer to many other colleges or universities.
Tips for prospective students Be absolutely sure they want to spend the next four years at Indiana Tech and work very hard to do well and get their professors' attention because their professors will have connections that could help them get jobs in the future.
Academic Rigor Indiana Tech keeps track of attendance unlike most colleges. They care about their students' success and are very serious about finding them a career that will last them a lifetime.
Dorm Life The dorms are bigger than what most colleges have and each dorm has their own bathroom and shower. A normal room has two bathrooms and one shower that would be shared between up to four people. Handicap rooms are larger than the normal rooms and has two full bathrooms (full bathroom including shower and toilet).
Food and Dining The food isn't great. There is a variety but its' food from a catering company so it's different than some might be used to. If that is the case there is a salad, pizza, sandwich and pasta bar available a every meal.
What to do for fun Student life, sorority/fraternity, and other school groups and clubs have social options about once or twice a week. There's bowling, music, corn hole on the warm days and a large grass area in the middle of campus for other fun things like ultimate frisbee, softball, football, etc.
Bang for the buck You're paying quite a bit but if you choose the small school setting you'll probably have a fine time at Indiana Tech. You can walk out of graduation with job offers from your professors, your professors get to know you and you DON'T have to share a bathroom with 30-40 people! Always a plus.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus These may not be unusual but we have nights of fine dining, red carpet dining, ice cream socials, egg hunts on Easter, Thanksgiving dinners, intramurals and so much more. What makes these traditions traditions is the people that attend.
Great for these types of students Indiana Tech is great for the students that enjoy the small school feeling. It's great for the students that like that one on one contact with teachers/professors because the professors at Indiana Tech are willing to put in the time with their students that they know by name. Indiana Tech is great for those student that want to come out of college with possible job offers.
Clubs and Activities There are so many clubs and activities that can be joined. There are clubs that match majors and minors, intramurals for sports you'd like to play other than the sport they play for Indiana Tech or because they don't play anything at all. It's fun and competitive. We have religious clubs. The Fort Wayne Tincaps play in the Spring season and students like to attend those games at the stadium just a few blocks away.
Greek Life There is one sorority and one fraternity on campus. They're not as popular yet because they started not too many years ago. They hold social occasions and events every once in a while.
Campus Safety Our campus is in the middle of Fort Wayne and Fort Wayne can be thought of as an unsafe city/community but Indiana Tech is definitely very safe. People that don't attend the school don't walk through because walking through our campus doesn't create any shortcut possibility. There are blue emergency stations scattered around campus that call the police directly if anything bad did occur. Security walks the grounds every once in a while to make sure everything is going squarely. Entering campus housing isn't possible without a code or school ID.

Categories Rating Comments In three sentences Indiana Tech is truly a unique school. The atmosphere is very comforting. Class size is small enought so that you can directly with the professors who are knowledgeable and willing to give you tips and the assistance that you need.
Tips for prospective students If you are unsure of what your intrests are. I would definitely recommend that you meet with an acedemic counselor. Indiana Tech has a wide range of studies and they can help guide you in the right direction for a career path that is right for you.
Academic Rigor Depending on your concentration, there are a wide range of courses. However, at the offsight locations the classes are small so that you can get the detailed assistance that you need

Bang for the buck I researched many schools in my area and this is one of the best fully accredited schools and very affordable.

Categories Rating Comments In three sentences indiana tech is a professional college that displays respect to their instructors as well as current and future students. if you need help or have any concerns, it's always available 24/7; with a click or phone call. there's lots of diversity, young and older adults. overall it's a mature setting.
Tips for prospective students i'm in the acceleration program. i enjoy my five-week classes. get plenty of rest and eat healthy because you will have to study for quiz and test. we'll know it's hard to study without rest and a proper meal. don't put a lot of course on yourself if you can't handle it. look for scholarships and apply if you have not already done so. do research on the campus you are planning to attend. ask a indiana tech representative some of your concerns.
Dorm Life i live off campus. contact the campus you wish to attend and take a visit and explore the dorms and or campus.
Food and Dining i live off campus. contact the campus you wish to attend and take a visit and explore the dorms and or campus.

Categories Rating Comments In three sentences this is a vary small, private school. small class sizes make it easy to connect with teachers. all faculty is willing to help with any problems with school or life in general, which is great.
Tips for prospective students file the fafsa early. keep on top of financial aid/billing with the business office. do not procrastinate. if possible, live off campus, it is much cheaper.

Dorm Life dorms are very clean and nice. however, it is much cheaper to live off campus if possible.
Food and Dining food is not great. some days it is okay, but most of the time it is not good.
What to do for fun the events the school holds are a lot of fun. also, there is a sorority and fraternity on campus that will hold events, and makes campus life much more active.

Categories Rating Comments In three sentences great online study program for my major.
independent study allows me to study around my schedule.
wonderful people to answer questions and help with any difficult situation (application, financial aid, transfers, ect).Tips for prospective students if you don't know what your doing or having a problem just ask, the people at the college are great and if they don't have the answer they will point you in the right direction!
Academic Rigor i wasn't sure if i was going to like the five week class study model being use to four to six class semesters. even though it is a lot of work and challenging, i have adapted quickly and love it now.

Categories Rating Comments In three sentences indiana tech is a great school for someone who wishes to attend a small school with an abundance of one on one time with professors, but the business office of the administration is extremely slow and under staffed. just make sure you track all of your financial, admission, and personal information to ensure that nothing goes wrong!
Tips for prospective students make sure there is time to take a tour of fort wayne. it is the second largest city in indiana and it can take some time to get used to driving in the thick traffic if you are not used to it. indiana tech has shuttle buses and tours available during freshman orientation and i strongly suggest you take one of them!
Academic Rigor i have enjoyed the majority of my professors and have had no problems obtaining a good grade point average, but as always there will be a few professors that are not to your standards or liking.
Dorm Life the freshmen are required to live in a suite style dorm, but indiana tech has over booked themselves the past few years and have students living in hotels for an extended period of time. make sure that there is enough allocated time for the housing application to be processed (may 10, 2012 is the earliest).
Food and Dining indiana tech only allows you to purchase a 19 meal a week plan and it is way too much food. no one needs that many meals a week in college. also, freshman are required to purchase the meal plan and the hours of the dining hall are extremely hard to accommodate to an athlete's schedule or someone with a job.
What to do for fun there are a few day trips that can be made to the zoo or to one of the two malls, but there is no night life on or off campus.
Bang for the buck the admission process is extremely frustrating and the overall experience is not something to be wowed over, but indiana tech is known for giving out scholarships that will cover at least a third of tuition costs.
Great for these types of students great for soccer, tennis, track, baseball, softball, basketball, and lacrosse athletes!
Clubs and Activities several other intramural sports are available for fun, but have no scholarship value attached to them.
Greek Life indiana tech has two fraternities and one sorority
Campus Safety campus security is watching and protecting 24/7 365.

Categories Rating Comments In three sentences indiana tech offers a good program for returning adults, going one night a week for fives weeks per class. however, the program is not very developed in it's services and assistance given to non-traditional students. the classes should be offered at a lower rate as well, considering we are not getting the same length of education as traditional students are.
Tips for prospective students take your time in considering several colleges before settling on one. compare pricing per credit hour for each class and services offered to guide you through your entire college career and afterwards.
Food and Dining returning adult students are not offered any food and dining services.
What to do for fun returning adult students are not offered nor given any choices for extra curricular activities.
Bang for the buck the classes are over priced, but for my degree i don't have to take as many strenuous classes that are required of me at other universities, also i don't have to pay for books because we rent them. another advantage is we take one course per week for five weeks then move on to the next course. however, we do pay twelve hundred dollars per class.
Great for these types of students this college was originally created for traditional, campus residing students, with sports scholarships. it is a private school so if that is what you are looking for this school is it.
Greek Life they do offer a small fraternity and sorority, but because this is a smaller school there isn't a large number of participation, and because sports are the major focus of this school, they don't get alot of attention.
Campus Safety they have one security desk, and security is not available after specific hours, also for the classes held at night there is only one security guard. yet there tends to be some breaks ins into people's cars because of the lack of security.
