Indiana University Bloomington

Bloomington, IN

A large public flagship known especially for its Kelley School of Business and Jacobs School of Music (one of the best music schools in the country, conservatory or otherwise), set in a classic Big Ten college town. A big Greek scene, the campus-wide Little 500 bike race, and Big Ten football and basketball give it a full, spirited social calendar alongside the academics.
