The CONNECT Program is designed for high school graduates who have applied for admission to BSU but have been advised by the admissions office to first attend their local Ivy Tech State College for better academic preparation to ensure success at Ball State.

The CONNECT Program between Ivy Tech State College and Ball State University

The CONNECT Program is a special program that allows a student who wishes to attend Ball State University but has not had the appropriate academic preparation to take their first-year courses at Ivy Tech and, in most cases, the student is guaranteed admission to Ball State as a sophomore.

To sign up for the program, the student must contact a CONNECT Program counselor (the student can get the contact information at http://www.bsu.edu). Once in the program, the student will be required to earn a minimum of 24 transferable college-level credits at Ivy Tech State College. Only specific courses (listed below) in which the student earns a grade of “C” or better will count towards the 24 hours of credit required for admission to Ball State. Once these courses are successfully completed, the student is guaranteed admission to Ball State University (although no guarantee is made that the student will be admitted to restricted majors).

Once the student is signed up, the CONNECT Program counselor will help the student plan their schedule of classes and help the student set up attendance at the required special orientation program at Ball State in late summer before the student begins the CONNECT Program courses.
