Mar 2018: I graduated from Kent a long time ago...no need to go into details on May4'70...it only remotely relates to today's students. I had a wonderful time there, met my wife of 45 years, and have a happy life. Kent was part of the foundation for a useful career.
My caution in judging Kent could well be written about many universities. A current look at their curriculum shows a woeful lack of emphasis on providing a career path for after graduation. A bachelor's degree in most of the majors will lead to work outside of that major. Really, majors in Philosophy, English Literature, Geology, etc...do they lead to careers in that field? No...not unless you go on for a Master's or Doctorate degree. And Kent, in addition to the many other institutions that do so as well, is pumping out more teachers than there are jobs.

Feb 2018: Offer no help or understanding toward commuters to their satellite or main branches--if you're poor or have a real life with real-world problems, they don't have time for you. They refused to refund my friend's tuition when she had to drop out because her grandmother was dying and she had to help take care of her because it was after their allotted "drop" classes time period. It took her 13 years to complete her degree elsewhere and certainly changed her life and not for the better. The refused to allow me to do an independent study because I was kicked out of my home and living on my own and trying to go to school, start a business, and commute to the main branch full-time, and managed to maintain a 4.0 whilst doing so because "they don't do things like that (independent study) here." I was never able to finish my degree after 15 years and co Review from Google
Jan 2018: Sometimes you think you like it here because its beautiful in the summer and there is black squirrels but if you need academic help or anything related to financial need noone can help you, something new is always being built but never finished (raising tution and meal plan), for most classes they make required special kent state books that are over $100 and are ONLY found at kent state. Lastly, the school is always promoting diversity but wont make any solid efforts to help or even promote multicultural orgs or students. The only good thing is the fashion and architecture school.

Sep 2017: There is a lot of diversity on- campus and the people here are amazing! The campus is gigantic and I only got lost once. Google maps helps a lot. Review from GoogleAug 2017: I want to recognize Iris from the Kent State Bursar's office. On what was likely one of the busier days of the year, she went out of her way to be helpful, courteous, and patient. Her empathy and concern for our particular situation were evident and much appreciated.

Mar 2017: This place sucks. The front door (which allows people to be buzzed in) breaks at least once a week, either locking people in or out. The washers and dryers break with no repairs for weeks. They also cost $1.25/$1.00, so you might as well go to the laundromat anyway. For the price, the apts are small and the pet fee is outrageous. Each apt gets only one parking space and there are no spaces for guests - so watch out or your friends will get towed. The "maintenance workers" are not certified plumbers, electricians, or anything else. So when your kitchen floods (which happens all the time) or your toilet backs up all over the bathroom because there's a block in the line (also frequent), they can't help you. You have to wait for a second visit from someone who knows what they are doing.
