College + Kelley is a program designed for undergraduate students who want to combine the power of their liberal arts and sciences education with a specialized master degree from Kelley before entering the job market. We greatly value the diverse skill set and perspectives that College students bring to the Kelley graduate classroom and

College + Kelley allows students to study what they love at the undergraduate level and then jumpstart their careers with momentum from a Kelley graduate degree.

In addition to the MSIS, College students who receive a full-time offer in the fall of their senior year are eligible to apply, through +Kelley, to the part-time, online Kelley Direct specialized master degrees.

HPPLC PreMed and PreLaw Orientations


Hello!

 

Are you interested in even the possibility of attending law or medical school in the future?  If so, these meetings should be considered mandatory!  

 

PREMED ORIENTATION with Dr. Rachel Tolen, HPPLC Assistant Director and Premed Advisor:  Tuesday, August 29, 6:00 to 7:30 pm.  Whittenberger Auditorium, Indiana Memorial Union. (If you need to come late, or leave early, no problem.)

 

PRELAW ORIENTATION with Dean Greg Canada, Dean of Admission IUB Law School (!):  Wednesday, August 30, 6:00 to 7:30 pm.  Law School Moot Court Room 123 (corner of 3rd and Indiana).  (If you need to come late, or leave early, no problem.)

 

Why:  Admission to law and medical schools remains extremely competitive.  Early preparation can make all the difference, and can make the process much less stressful later on.  Learn what really matters, what doesn't, and what you can do now to enhance your credentials that may be very difficult or impossible to do later. 

 

The Health Professions and Prelaw Center (HPPLC) is an office in Maxwell Hall devoted to helping you achieve your professional dreams.  These meetings will get you off to a great start.  These are unique opportunities that students at smaller colleges simply do not have.  Please take advantage of it -- you will be glad you did!

 

We expect a large crowd at both events!  Come with questions, or just sit and listen. 

 

Questions?  Want more information?  Contact HPPLC at hpplc@indiana.edu.  We hope to see you there!

 

Thank you!!

The HPPLC Staff

Indiana Canine Assistant Network Volunteer Opportunity



We are a group of students with a mission to educate, fundraise, and volunteer with the Indiana Canine Assistant Network (ICAN). ICAN focuses not only on the service dogs in the program but on the individuals involved in this process. We're looking for people who would be interested in joining! If you are interested, please send your name and IU email address to ICANatIU@gmail.com

  • About ICAN : ICAN is a 501(c)3 non-profit organizations founded in 2001 that utilizes multiple prisons in the state of Indiana to train service dogs. These service dogs are then carefully placed with a disabled individual, ensuring their personality types and needs match up. 
  • General Member : We are looking for students or members of the Bloomington community interested in attending monthly meetings and fund-raising events. The goal of these members is to spread awareness on campus about service dogs and plan events that could help raise money for ICAN. 
  • Furlough : We are looking for students or members of the Bloomington community to commit to hosting a service-dog-in-training for a three week period three times over the course of the school year. Each dog will have two human companions who will split up the responsibility according to their own schedules. Please note this is still a large time commitment, and it will be necessary for you to attend additional meetings and complete extensive training before handling these animals. 
  • Executive Board : Ashton Asbury and Julie Mathias will be serving as ICAN at IU's Presidents for the 2017-2018 school year. We are looking for students to hold the role of Secretary, Treasurer, or a general executive member. If this interests you, please contact us: ICANatIU@gmail.com.
