Categories Rating Comments In three sentences Ivy Tech Community College at the East Central location is an exellent school. Ivy Tech is student friendly. The staff is welcoming and helpful both in and out of class.
Tips for prospective students It is best to know the major before takeing classes unless they are prerequisites. If a students does not know the major they are going for they run the of taking extra classes and wasting valuable time and money. Also, a student needs to give 110 percent in every class it will pay off.
Academic Rigor Professors will help students and work with them if they show effort toward the class. College is much harder if the student does not apply themself toward their work. Academic success represents the student effort because Professors will not just hand out grades
Dorm Life It would be nice if there was a dorm life. Dorm life at Ivy Tech is the appartment or house the student lives in prior to college. There is no dorm life at Ivy Tech.
Food and Dining Ivy Tech has vending machines for dining. If the student does not want something from a vending machine there are close fast food restaurants. I would be nice to have a concession stand that serves hot food.

Categories Rating Comments In three sentences Terrible. I was denied financial aid becausemy EFC was zero. Discriminating teachers. No diversity. Horrible memories. I was hung up on by the receptionist several times.
Tips for prospective students Go to a four year college or try a different community college. I would rather drive three hours to another college then to deal with these sociopaths.
Academic Rigor shocking.
Dorm Life none
Food and Dining On top of everything I got a bad case of food poisoning from a coffee from one of their vending machines, which is al the food there is. I was sick right away. Stay away from the vending machines.
What to do for fun Leave.
Bang for the buck It was basically Communist discrimination time when I went there. I paid for that?
Great for these types of students Brain dead. Maybe communication or social work students. You will have to deal with these people there is no going around them, you paid for it. Mind boggling igorance and nastiness.
Clubs and Activities zero
Greek Life zero

Categories Rating Comments In three sentences i have enjoyed being a student at ivy tech. i have found that being a working mother and going back to school can be accomplished. it is not an easy road but ivy tech has helped me through it all. thank you ivy tech soon i will have my dream job!
Tips for prospective students sign up for your classes early because they fill up fast. keep your head up and just keep going forward. use your resources and time wisely.
Academic Rigor i think that the academic requirements are very high. they do not want people who are not going to be hard workers. they have good standards set.
Food and Dining i am not real sure about the food and dining i have never tried it. i have heard good things about it though.
Campus Safety i have never felt that i have been in harms way while on campus. i do feel it is a safe campus.

Categories Rating Comments In three sentences i love this college so far and all the teachers i have. i was not to big on the idea of college but now that i am here i am more than positive this was a very great first step to achieving my life goals. i think that if you are a person that is iffy about school but wants to give it a try you should definitely start here.
Tips for prospective students it is much easier to understand how to go about coming into this college if you actually do come in. the staff is wonderful and will guide you thru the application and financial aid process. signing up for classes is very easy to do online and when you first come in you will actually have someone help you sign up for your first term.
Academic Rigor i think the compass test you take to be admitted into the college really is the first step in showing you what type of expectations the college has for you. it was very helpful because it placed me in classes that i should be starting with not in classes that i might have automatically fallen behind in. ivy tech wants you to succeed and gives you every tool to do so when it comes to academics.
Dorm Life this community college has no dorms but usually near ivy tech campuses there are lots of apartment complexes to check out if you're interested.
Food and Dining we don't have a food court or anything like that but the campus does offer free pizza and popcorn every once and awhile. there are also tons of vending machines all over campus that don't only have chips and candies but sandwiches and smaller things that you can heat up in the provided microwaves.
What to do for fun i've seen that there a many different clubs you can join at ivy tech that will also help you advance in your academic studies. occasionally there are trips and outside activities you can sign up for that are posted on your campus connect. there are plenty of things to do if you keep tabs on when things are going on.
Bang for the buck i believe it is totally worth the money to come here. seeing how classes here range from $300 - $400 i'd say it is more than worth it. at a bigger college you'd probably be paying over $1000 for one class. on top of that there are computer labs, free tutoring, and it is very easy to get ahold of your teachers. so to me yes, this was worth every penny.
Great for these types of students students that prefer smaller class settings should look into ivy tech. that's one reason i came here because i do believe it is easier to learn in a class where more than likely everyone wants to be there. it is also better if you like more one on one time with your teacher, since the classes are smaller it is easy to get that time.
Campus Safety we do have security guards on campus and they are very friendly. there are also lockers you can rent out in the buildings. i feel more than safe here, over all it is a very great learning environment!
