Sitting on almost 2,000 acres full of green space and historic buildings, Indiana University is a large public research university and one of the best values is higher education. Almost half of all undergraduates enroll in the College of Arts and Sciences which boasts more than 50 academic departments. Indiana University’s College of Arts and Sciences is known for its long list of foreign languages taught (more than any other school in the nation), and for its more unconventional departments like the Department of Folklore and Ethnomusicology. The Kelley School of Business and the Jacobs School of Music are among the more popular outside of the College of Arts and Sciences. With a reputation for excellence in a vast range of academic disciplines, a campus and surrounding college town that offer a rich and diverse student life, a highly-ranked athletics program and a beautiful campus, students come to IU for a well-rounded college experience.
