Indiana U. stats

<p>Does anyone know what the admission requirements for a transfer student are at Indiana U. I was thinking about applying their next year and was wondering if anyone has any info on avg. gpa or other helpful stats. </p>

<p>Thanks in advance</p>

<p>el bumpo..</p>

<p>Anyone know the direct admit requirements? Isnt it like top 10% and a 29 ACT?</p>

<p>thats what it was at Ohio State....not sure bout Indianna..but it shouldnt b too diff assuming they allow direct admission</p>

<p>what do you mean direct admission? dont' you have to apply to their main campus first and then apply to kelly?</p>

<p>My son looked into this--and this is what he found out:</p>

<p>You just apply directly to Indiana and then the people at the business school decide if you get direct admission status or not.</p>

<p>Then, if you don't get direct admission status, you have to complete a certain number of preliminary courses--and based upon these they decide whether you will be admitted to the business major or not. </p>

<p>This is how it works for freshman applicants. I don't know how this works for transfer students--I suggest you call them.</p>

<p>cool, thanks a lot for all the info.</p>

<p>does anyone know the class profile or admission stats for transfer students or freshman?</p>

<p>I couldn't find any of this info on the website :&lt;/p>

<p>is Indiana U. a state school?</p>

<p>one of the biggest state schools in the country. About 29k undergrads.</p>

<p>is University of Michigan - Ann Arbor a state school?</p>

<p>Yes, Michigan is a state school--and one of the largest campuses (acreage wise) in the Midwest. Ohio State and Penn State are the largest midwest school in terms of total students.</p>

<p>ohhh ok thanks, I think state school means something different in california... cause there are UC's and then there are state schools i.e. San Jose State University.</p>

<p>does anyone know what the difference is?</p>

<p>I may be wrong but aren't state schools just public? I think a state school is just a university funded by the state government.</p>

<p>my friend told me that there are 3 tiers of colleges:</p>

<h1>1 University</h1>

<h1>2 State school</h1>

<h1>3 community college</h1>

<p>Your friend is an idiot--well, about colleges anyway.</p>

<p>California has two college systems--the University of California and the California State University system. In reality, they are supposed to be entirely equivalent. </p>

<p>However, in terms of status and the like the University System gets higher rankings for the simple reason that they are national universities (meaning you can get PhDs there and they do a lot of research there) while at the Cal States you can only get master's degrees and they do very limited research.</p>

<p>There are 10 campuses in the UC system, and 23 Cal State Universities (which includes the two Cal Polytechnic campuses at San Luis Obispo and Pomona).</p>

<p>The UC system also manages a whole bunch of labs and medical centers--but that's another whole story.</p>

<p>Both UCs and Cal States are state schools--that is, their funding is supplied by taxes on the population of California as well as the tuition funding the students pay.</p>

<p>coolblue, when you talk to your friend again (the person who said that there are universities and there are state schools), you might want to point out that of the top 52 national universities listed in US News & World Report, 15 are "state schools". And six of these are located in California (part of the University of California system.) This doesn't include the wonderful schools (like Villanova, Trinity, Gonzaga, Santa Clara, Bentley, Cal State SLO, etc.) that only give masters degrees.</p>

<p>I realize in this last post I probably should have just listed public colleges that give masters--yes, I realize Gonzaga, Santa Clara, Bentley, and Trinity are private colleges--my point is that there are good schools not in the national universities list as well.</p>

<p>wow calcruzer, great explanation, thanks!</p>
