If you are interested in transferring into the Kelley Undergraduate Program, your first step is to apply and be admitted to IU Bloomington. You’ll need to be enrolled as a AMES student for at least your first semester on campus. You will enter Kelley through standard admission.

As a transfer student you will want to utilize Credit Transfer Service and IU Intercampus Transfer to learn more on how your coursework will apply to your IU Bloomington pathway. From there you will meet with an academic advisor to ensure you are making the enrollment choices that meet your admission and degree progress requirements.
