Indiana College Substance Use Survey
We are pleased to invite you to participate in the 2025 Indiana College Substance Use Survey at no cost to you!
This biennial survey collects important data on students’ substance use, motivations, consequences, and perceptions. Participants will receive a customized campus report comparing their results to statewide data, with options for gender and age breakdowns, and can add up to 10 custom questions. Data will be aggregated, and individual campuses will not be identified in the state report.
Interested parties should contact Kaitlyn Follmer at kreho@indiana.edu.
This survey is funded by the Division of Mental Health and Addiction
