Student Life

Lead with Purpose. Find Your Fire.

Life at Valpo feels like being known. It’s saying hi by name. It’s sharing late-night meals, showing up for your friends, and stepping into something new — together. You’ll find people here who listen, encourage, and make space for you to grow into yourself. Student life here is full of small moments that mean something: a conversation that shifts your perspective, a club meeting that turns into a community, a shared meal that becomes a tradition.

With over 100 student organizations, leadership opportunities, NCAA Division I athletics, and campus ministries rooted in faith and service, there’s room to try new things and space to keep becoming. You’ll find support in every corner — from classmates, from faculty, from people who genuinely care. Whether you join a cultural-based organization, play intramurals, or find connection through music or service, there’s a place here that fits.

Valpo is the kind of place where you can be your authentic self and create a sense of belonging.
