The Golden Location
Just a few steps away from our beautiful campus, you will find the award winning, lively college town of Kent. And with access to four large metropolitan cities close by while being a stone's throw away from the Cuyahoga Valley National Park, it's easy to see why we call Kent State “The Golden Location."
