IU is a strong school with a large network of DC alums and Bloomington is a really cute town. 1 hour from Indianapolis airport. Blue spot in a red state, if that matters to you. Lots of cultural events and concerts and good food. A kid who does well at IU will do well after IU.

+10 Same here. Congrats to your daughter. Does she like UMD? We are in state too and DD had her heart set on going OUT of state. But Maryland looks better and better every day.

+1. Thank you for the positive words about Indiana. Daughter is bummed because Michigan deferred her and that was her first choice (like ‘every’ other kid in this country. 😜😜) I just want her to be happy.

+10. Good to hear! Glad we are not the only ones considering Indiana. It is such a pretty campus. Good luck with merit. DC is filling out scholarship forms now.

+ 1. Kid not really interested in Kelly, though I wish she was. More liberal arts and media. Thank you for the plug for Indiana. DC must choose between Indiana or Maryland. No honors at UMD. IU sounds more and more appealing


Can you be in Hutton and the Media School? My DC got into the Media School.

Can't speak specifically to Hutton but my dad lives in Bloomington - we love it there! Wonderful college town. There are a ton of IU grads in DC, esp from the public policy school.

Has she visited? It’s a great program with lots of opportunities and B-town is a wonderful college town. There’s really something for everyone there.

Well, after a super frustrating weekend of deferrals, my DD heard something positive. She has been accepted into the Indiana University Hutton Honors Program. Does anyone have any experience with Hutton?

Thank you and good luck to all!
