Anahi - 06/27/2024

Indiana University-Kokomo has been voted one of the safest universities in the state of Indiana. Although campus size is small there are several benefits that come with it. A smaller class size which allows students to have strong communication with professors whether in class or outside of class. Indiana University-Kokomo is very big on student life. There are roughly 50 organizations/clubs. If it does not exist students are easily able to create their own. Daily campus events to help students decrease stress and associate with other students, staff, and professors.

Taylor - 12/14/2019

This is one of my favorite college campuses that I have ever been to. The campus is rather small so it is a more tight knit community of individuals who tend to know one another. Classes are small so it makes it extremely easy to get to know your fellow classmates, but to also get more one on one time with the professors if needed. In most cases, if you need to speak with the professor it is not a problem to find an availability to meet with them. Everyone I have ever worked with one campus is extremely flexible with there time. Classes are an average length and the professors on campus all seem to know what they are doing. Other than a lack of parking because it is a commuting campus, this is my favorite school!

Olivia - 08/01/2019

I am only entering my sophomore year of college, but I know IU Kokomo is where I belong. I am currently working on entering the education program and couldn't feel more supported by my professors. I have yet to meet a professor that doesn't want to help you succeed. I think this has to do with the fact that we have a 14 to 1 student faculty ratio. If you are looking for a school that will support and help you along the way, IUK is the place to go.

Sarah - 06/24/2019

Indiana University Kokomo does a lot of events that involved both the students and the community. It also has smaller class sizes so the professors know every student and are always available to help. The atmosphere is calm and encouraging. There is a lot of space to use for studying or group work. It is just a very comfortable learning environment.

    If I had the opportunity to talk to myself as a senior and give advice, I would have a lot of advice to give. I would first make sure to tell myself that freshman year of college WILL be more difficult than high school and to prepare myself for the challenge. I would also tell myself to focus on the friends and memories during my senior year since it is the last year of high school. I would suggest looking at textbooks online before buying them in the campus bookstore and also to research available scholarship opportunities. I would also advise myself to enjoy my college career, yet stay focused on academic responsibilities.

  6. What kind of person should not attend this school?

    IUK is not the right school for a person with no ties to the Kokomo area, especially if that person is a very high academic achiever. A student who possesses the intelligence and means to attend a very prestigious university, such as Harvard or Georgetown, that person should not consider IUK as an alternative. Also, if a student is not from the Kokomo area and does not have any great ties to the Kokomo area, there would be no reason to move or travel to Kokomo to attend IUK.

  14. Here's your chance: Say anything about your college!

    Small campus where everyone feels like family. Staff and faculty are very accomodating. You ask for help as a new student on campus there was always someone willing to go out of their way tohelp you. Everyone on campus expressed interest in the welfare of the students. One thing I enjoyed the most was their flexibility on tuition payment, not one was kicked out of clas because they have not finished paying their tuition, compared to my previous experience, where you would find yourself dropped out of class if you do meet the deadline for payment.
