Indiana College Value Index

The Indiana College Value Index aims to enhance Indiana’s existing campus- and program-level college Return on Investment Reports with data from the Gallup-Purdue Index of graduates’ satisfaction and the lifelong dividends their degree produces, beyond just wage levels.

Since the initial release of the Gallup-Indiana Survey data, The Indiana College Value Index has incorporated qualitative measures to existing state-level return on investment reports. The tool will also serve as an important resource for students across Indiana to develop successful pathways to fulfilling careers.
