Kelly BS

<p>IUPUI Kelley students are not allowed to use the career services office at Bloomington. They are not permitted to do interviews on the Bloomington campus through the USCO. The last I checked, a student had to be taking at least nine credits on the Bloomington campus to use Kelley Bloomington’s career office. Also, IU Kelley students may not use the IUPUI career office.</p>

<p>IUPUI’s housing is much newer than Bloomington’s, but IUPUI’s housing is dominated by foreign grad students (IU has a medical school and many other post-grad programs), many of which have families. All 7000+ IU freshman, on the other hand, live on campus, except for the few whose parents live within 25 miles of campus. The IUPUI housing is about one mile from the building that has most business classes. A lot of IU housing is that far away from Kelley, but IU has a good bus system and is safe enough to ride bikes on campus; IUPUI has a poor bus system and and bordered by high-crime neigborhoods to its west and northeast. Drive the IU campus at night and you see hundreds of students in groups; drive the IUPUI campus at night and you see lone individuals walking to their vehicles. Same with the library; IUPUI at night is a few individuals studying alone, Wells Library at night is alive with students studying in groups.</p>

<p>Where are the job placement statistics for IUPUI Kelley grads? I would be shocked if they are available anywhere on the internet.</p>

<p>Soccurgirl is correct that Kelley Bloomington will not accept upper-level business classes from IUPUI.</p>

<p>You can’t compare the academic quality of IUPUI and IU students. IUPUI is a commuter school with few high achieving students. A self-report about their mission and student body was published ten years ago, and no doubt still applies today:</p>

<p>“IUPUI"s students and campus environment bear scant resemblance to traditional paradigms of higher education. We are a commuter institution serving largely working, first-generation, financial aid-eligible students in a state ranked 50th in the proportion of adults over age 25 with college degrees. Many students arrive on campus without any clear sense of what to expect from college. While admission and enrollment statistics show that our beginning students” preparation for college is rapidly improving, more than half of entering freshmen in Fall 2001 and slightly less than half in Fall 2002 were “conditional admits.” That is, they were considered under-prepared for college-level work by virtue of class rank, SAT/ACT scores, or high-school coursework. Moreover, most students are extensively engaged in pursuits other than college study; a majority work 30 or more hours a week, for example, and many have family and community commitments outside school."

<p>You want you son to be around the brightest students and teachers possible. 14% of IUPUI students scored 600+ on the SAT reading section, compared to 36% at Bloomington. ACT composite score of 24+ was 35% at IUPUI and 80% at IU Bloomington per the latest common data sets.</p>
