Ohio's Rising
College Town
Some of the best parts of Kent State sit just past the edge of campus.
Follow the Lefton Esplanade straight into downtown Kent, Ohio's #1 college town. The walk takes minutes and drops you among locally owned restaurants, coffee shops, live music and festivals that run all year. When you're ready for a bigger stage, Cleveland and Akron are a short drive away with internships and entertainment to match.
