The cost of living in Indianapolis is comparable to that in Midwest cities of similar size. It is impossible to give close estimates, but, in addition to the fees for students, room and board run from $600 monthly upward; and bus fare, laundry, and incidentals may average $150 monthly. Books and supplies cost approximately an average of $150-$200 per course. Expenditures for personal items depend upon the individual student.

Student Organizations

Students of the school maintain B.S.W. and M.S.W. Social Work Student Associations, which sponsor program meetings and social affairs during the year. Through elected officers and committees, the associations serve as important channels for communication between students and faculty. In addition, these organizations appoint student representatives to various school committees. Students are also encouraged to participate in organizations related to the social work profession. Information about these organizations can be found in the B.S.W. and M.S.W. Student Handbooks.

Student Employee Health Service

All students are eligible to be seen on a fee basis for health services available through the Indiana University Student Employee Health Service of the Medical Center in Indianapolis. For information call (317) 274-8214. In addition to these services, students may apply for blanket medical expense coverage that will also insure dependents of students. For information or to apply, call 1-800-321-8964.
