A diverse and dynamic community across nine campuses

Our diversity is one of our greatest strengths. IU students, faculty, and staff represent a dynamic cross-section of the world, with more than 90,700 students from all 50 U.S. states (plus Washington, D.C.) and 164 countries. Together, they form a culturally rich community of mutual respect, understanding, and support across nine campuses, where every student can find their home at IU, make lifelong friends, and pursue their passions.

One of the reasons I chose IU is because when I got there, it just felt like a really nice community. The whole “IU is home” thing sounds cheesy, but I feel it’s so true. I just felt like there was so much to do, and that no matter what I decided to do, I’d be able to find my people.
