The Office of Online Education (OOE) has established a new student services partnership within its Campus Partner Program to support graduate students in online collaborative graduate certificate and degree programs. The Graduate Support Services Partnership, formed with IU East, works jointly with other OOE campus partners, as well as faculty and staff at the regional campuses to complement and enhance services for these online learners.
Molly Vanderpool, executive director of admissions at IU East, serves as the partnership lead, providing strategic direction for the service. Kara Newman, director of graduate admissions operations, serves as partnership manager, overseeing day-to-day operations and working directly with students.
Services include:
- Streamlined admissions processes
- Personalized enrollment support
- Targeted financial services
- Comprehensive orientation and onboarding resources
- Math, writing, and academic support
- Coaching and career services
Students also have access to services and support from faculty and staff at their home campus. To learn more, contact Kara Newman at iuograd@iu.edu or (765) 973-8418.
