Get ready to discover your full potential

Welcome to IU Kokomo! We can't wait to meet you. If you are starting classes in January 2027, we will help prepare you for success via our New Student Onboarding process.

Steps to start strong:

1. Confirm you are officially admitted to campus. If you have not received an admissions decision, email admission@iu.edu Your admissions decision and welcome packet will be mailed to your home address. Inside, you will find your IU student ID number and other important materials. You can also view this information in your application portal.
2. Create your IU computing account. You will need your student ID number which was included in your admission welcome packet. For assistance, please contact the IT help desk by calling +1-765-455-9315. You need this account to register for classes.
3. Call +1-765-455-9405 to schedule your new student advising appointment after your IU account is created. Your academic advisor will help you register for spring courses.
4. Accept your invitation to Spring 2027 New Student Orientation Canvas site to complete the Starting Strong Module. This site will be available in early November.
5. Join us on campus for New Student Orientation on Thursday, January 7, 2027, from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. This session is your essential guide to college success, where you'll get insider tips from students and faculty, master key IUK technology basics, and learn about important student support services. Please RSVP if you plan to attend so you can be fully prepared for your first semester!
