Travel: Go to Indianapolis, it's the cheapest way to get here. Be prepared to work hard if you take 4 or more courses in the Graduate program. Very recommendable place to study.

when you come there, get new friends and everything is going to be easier. Dont worry about learining, it takes a time but faculty staff is pretty "relaxed" and ready to help you in any situation.

One needs to be very active to get in contact with the local students, they don't have a very big interest in trying to get to know exchange students

The university is OK, there are a lot of students in town (I guess they outnumber the people who live in Bton permanently). A lot of faculties, a lot of museums, the campus is quite green and nice looking, a good recreational center for sports. The nightlife could be better.

Book your travel well in advance - especially as you have an internal flight to Indy. Those are often fully booked. And by the way, there is a shuttle bus running between Indy airport and the Memorial Union house. Interestingly, there are very, very few taxis in Bloomington. Therefore, many take a limo for getting to Bloomington from the airport!!!

Go there, check out the MBA program. Supplement your european/whatever education with some practical american education. Plus, exchanges always rock! Nice people, lots of beer...

Do not go to New Orleans for Thanksgiving. It is dead there. Instead check out NY if you haven't been there before.

Live of-campus to save money! Fly to Indianapolis to get here, don't fly to Chicago or anywhere thinking that it will the cheapest way to get here. The cheapest way is to arrange a flight to Indianapolis in advance.
