I would probably get it, I myself use the copper iud, and have three times (over 9 years and 4 kids)
after my marriage ended (when ds #2 was 18 months) I thought it was likely I would want more kids one day, but not anytime soon. (like you I was in college ) I used the depo shot, which was a stupid decision. I wish I had been more thoughtful about it and gotten another iud. the depo shot caused me to gain 25lbs over 9 months (three shots) and then when I met my new partner and quit using it. once we decided to ttc it took 6 months to become pg.
