I transferred to the university as a second semester sophomore. The academic advisors and Student Accessibility Services (SAS) team were super helpful! Overall I had amazing professors who would put in extra office hours to accommodate my busy schedule, explain things in different ways fro students by giving real life examples, constantly stopping during lectures to make sure we understand the material being presented, worked with me when I had accommodations and when they didn't work the first time, and answer my emails very quickly.
The students and general university community are very accepting, down to earth, and genuine. I felt right at home when walking around campus even my first week after transferring!

Kent State is a diverse campus, with many opportunities for foreigners, and has excellent achievement plans set for each student. However, some professors are lacking in the "teaching" department. Despite the poor professors, there are also amazing ones who do their best. Kent is a safe and comfortable environment for people who are different. This includes LGBT+, transgender people. It is a very liberal campus with lot's of protesting and protecting. It's very interesting to see the diverse groups, and to see the effort that the school puts out for them!
I like the professors at Kent State University, who are a big reason for my success. The professors I've had at Kent State are very informative, non-judgemental, and helpful. I also like the different organizations they have at KSU, I am currently a part of the construction management organization and love to get involved. I also love the friendships I've made at KSU I know that they will be long-lasting! I also love that I work for the engagement center for our university where I advocate for current KSU students and help raise funding for scholarships.
