The <strong>University</strong> of <strong>Southern</strong> <strong>Indiana</strong> was founded in Evansville in 1965.<br />

students who live on campus.<br />
Academic Life<br />
The <strong>University</strong> enrolls 10,516 students and offers undergraduate majors<br />
in 70 areas of study. An ever-increasing number of post-graduate programs<br />
also are available to students who wish to continue their education,<br />
including a Doctor of Nursing Practice degree. Opportunities are<br />
available for service learning, study abroad, and internships.<br />
Campus Life<br />
Outside the classroom, students have opportunities to participate in<br />
more than 90 organizations offering co-curricular and extra-curricular<br />
activities. Special interest clubs, student government, sororities and<br />
fraternities, music and drama groups, and other organizations enable<br />
the students to enjoy and contribute to campus life.<br />

Students living on campus have their choice of two types of housing.<br />
Students can live in standard apartments or in suite-style housing in<br />
residence halls which have amenities such as Internet connections,<br />
wireless Internet, and cable television. Computer labs, laundromats,<br />
a convenience store, outdoor and indoor recreation areas, and student<br />

Financial Assistance<br />
USI provides families with an affordable way to a higher education.<br />
While some families find that they can handle the cost of a USI<br />
education without financial assistance, others qualify for need-based<br />
financial packages, including grants, loans, and on-campus jobs.<br />
