Indiana University of Pennsylvania International Student Insurance
Indiana University of Pennsylvania (IUP), located in the city of Indiana, Pennsylvania, was established in 1875. It was founded as the Indiana Normal school, a training school for teachers. All classes were held in one building. The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania gained ownership of the school in 1920. In 1927, its name changed to the State Teachers College at Indiana, and it gained the right to grant degrees. The school became Indiana State College in 1959 and adopted official university status and its present name in 1965. Today, IUP enrolls more than 12,000 students and counting each year. Its colors are crimson and gray, and its athletic nickname is the Crimson Hawks.
IUP operates three satellite campuses in Punxsutawney, Northpointe, and Pittsburgh East, all in Pennsylvania. The Punxsutawney school is the home of the nationally recognized IUP Academy of Culinary Arts.
