just learn from the pages

of a textbook. They have

the opportunity to see and

actually do. They get out there

and get passport stamps from

all kinds of cool places all over

the world like Amsterdam,

England, Guatemala, and

Poland…just to name a few.

KEY IS OUR CALLING CARD

When you step onto our campus even for a minute, you’ll see the shirts that read, “KEY.” You might walk by the KEYpad and see students collaborating on projects or just having fun. And you’ll hear about our KEY trips…a lot.

The Kokomo Experience and You was created to send you out into the world: to see, do, and get a feel for your future. Trips are usually free and designed for you.

Students have traveled to Disney World to study hospitality and tourism, visited a DEA office in Chicago to get an inside look at criminal justice careers, road tripped to Bradford Woods for a writing retreat, made art from nature, experienced team building on a ropes course, and so. many. more.

KEY trips are fun, super informative, and more are added each and every semester!

AND WE THINK YOU’RE GOING TO LOVE IT, TOO.// Curated trips give you the opportunity to learn outside of the classroom and experience more.

// While some trips are tied to specific classes, many are open to any student, no matter their course of study.

// Most KEY trips are free for students.

// Our KEY program extends past the trips to become a supportive network of faculty and staff who are cheering on your success.

// Dive into the community by collaborating on projects together in our KEYpad—a space designed to enrich your KEY experience.
