It’s like the professors know you personally. I feel very comfortable with a lot of the psychology professors. I’m in the psychology suite all the time. They’re like family. I always know I can go up there and just ask any questions, get help with grad school stuff, anything. And I think that’s a really comforting fact of IU Kokomo.

Unique to IU Kokomo, KEY includes opportunities for travel, research, and experiential learning, all available at no or low cost. You might study conservation at a national park, take a trip to a raptor rehabilitation center, or explore how Disney magic happens during a behind-the-scenes trip to Walt Disney World in Orlando. Every experience is a chance to build deeper relationships with classmates, faculty, and the community while gaining real-world insights and experience.

For students who would like a head start, the KEY Summer Institute is a free, one-week program with informative, interactive learning about campus and academic success, offered the summer before you begin your studies at IU Kokomo.
