Indiana University Southeast is a public university in New Albany, Indiana. It is a regional campus of Indiana University.

The numbers tell a mixed story here: at just $8,257/year after aid and a median debt of only $11,650, this is one of the most affordable paths to a degree you'll find anywhere. The serious concern is the 33% graduation rate — meaning only 1 in 3 students who start actually finish — which suggests many students struggle to complete, whether due to life circumstances, financial pressure, or academic fit. Worth considering if you're a commuter student in the Louisville/southern Indiana area who needs low cost and flexibility, but go in with a clear plan and strong support system, because the odds of finishing here require intentional effort.
