The Indiana University Independent Study Program offers more than 200 university-level correspondence courses. Students enrolling in independent study courses receive a study guide that contains reading assignments in the required textbooks, discussion sections, and written assignments. Lessons are sent to an instructor who reviews and grades student work.
Students can talk to their instructors by calling a toll-free number.
Most courses have one or more examinations, which must be taken under supervision at an accredited school. Students have one year to complete a course. More information concerning Independent Study by Correspondence is available from the Division of Continuing Studies.
