Indiana University Athletics
Hoosier Compass
Our mission is to provide the best guidance possible for IU student-athletes to make them feel more confident in their path after graduation. To help make this easier, we've broken that goal down into 4 steps, where you'll focus on one step per year. Altogether, these serve as your compass getting you to your destination for after graduation.
NAVIGATE (N): Freshman Year
?Your first year as a student-athlete at IU should be focused on navigating your new environment. Acclimating to a new team, new coach, new academics, new routines, new everything, can take some time. Spend your freshman year branching out and getting accustomed to your new life.
EXPLORE (E): Sophomore Year
As a sophomore, you've hopefully built a sense of comfort here at IU. Now it's time to explore things you're interested in, passionate about, and what you're good at. Let's discover who you are other than a student-athlete!
SOLIDIFY (S): Junior Year
?Junior year is the perfect time to finally solidify what you hope to do after graduation (next year!!) You've worked so hard to discover your skills and passions, now it's time to narrow that down and build the last few steps you need to get there.
WIN (W): Senior Year
You've made it!! You should be so proud of your accomplishments and hard work to get you to your senior year. Everything you've done has led you up to this point. It will all come together to get you to where you want to go, once you get that diploma. Sounds like a big win in life!
