Nursing at IU Kokomo
The School of Nursing at Indiana University Kokomo began in 1967 with the authority to offer the Associate of Arts in Nursing Program. However, during 1976-77 the curriculum was determined to be more oriented to sciences than art, therefore the degree was changed to an Associate of Science with the 1977 graduating class. To Facilitate student mobility toward higher degree attainment, the RN to BSN Transition Program began in 1986; the LPN to ASN Transition Program began in 1987; the (basic) Bachelor's in Nursing Program (BSN) began in 1988.

Program Update
In 2006, administration on the Indiana University Kokomo campus made a decision to emphasize the need for more nurses who hold bachelor’s and master’s degrees. As a result, the Associate of Science in Nursing (ASN) degree will be suspended, with the last class being admitted in fall 2006. The LPN to ASN Transition Program is also being suspended, and will admit students summer 2006 and summer 2007. This action will culminate with the last graduating class of ASN nurses in 2008.
