Kent State University at Stark is a good school for someone who needs a degree, but is not too interested in college experience or other than achieving their degree. The faculty are excellent and overqualified for for positions and I would definitely suggest the school to someone who needs a degree for their career, but also wants to work full time or is not invested in campus life.

Morgan - 06/06/2019

It is a very nice campus. I wish there was more of a variety of classes but overall great campus.

Alexyss - 04/04/2019

Kent State University at Stark is a safe, organized, and original environment. There is a lot of artistic creativity shown around the campus. Sports do not seem to be majorly important, but there are a few sporty clubs and activities to join. There are many hands-on activities, and some students I know tend to say great things about how the school is. I am very excited to start here in the fall.
