We often wonder what factors are most important to adults in choosing an accelerated degree program.  Convenience, location, and availability of financial aid come to mind, but I was reminded again in a conversation with a group of our students that quality and academic reputation are important to these adults.  That’s good to know because it means our students chose us because they wanted an education, not just a piece of paper with the word diploma on it.  These students also admitted that though they like to complain about some of the general education courses, they appreciated the variety of courses available—some even said they liked the way those courses expanded their horizons.

The School for Adult Learning at the University of Indianapolis is celebrating our class of 2008 at our university graduation ceremony on May 3rd.  The  75 graduates of the class of 2008 mark the largest graduating class in our 10 year history.  These graduates represent the diverse community of adult students in our accelerated degree program. 

We recognize that completing a degree is tough for adult students who find themselves juggling work, family, and life responsibilites while they take night classes.  This graduating class shows us that achieving their goal of earning a bachelor degree is possible.  Our students tell us they receive the help they need from our staff all along the way.  One of our graduates commented, " They will take time at SAL, no matter what time of the day or evening, to speak with you to set a program in place to know what your goals are, and how you are going to achieve them." Mary Lindop,'08, stated, " It's like an extended family and I think anyone pursuing a degree here should know that.  You really have faculty and staff who really care about you."

With our accelerated degee program for adults in Indiana, you can meet your goal of earning a respected college degree.  From our Return to Learning Class, which will help you get started, to the capstone classes that will conclude your undergraduate experience, SAL will put you first.  For more information contact our Admission Staff at 317-788-3393 or sal@uindy.edu.

The campus visit is an invaluable piece of the college selection process. A firsthand account of any college or university, from meeting with students to checking out residence hall rooms , the campus visit often provides students and parents with more information and more insight into the campus experience.
