Transfer Students

Continuing a tradition that began in 2019, Kent State's incoming Class of 2028 came together to form a large "K" on Manchester Field.

The university welcomed Kent State's Class of 2024 in grand style at this year's convocation with inspirational speeches from university administrators,  rally towels, strobe lights, Golden Flash cheerleaders and the Marching Golden Flashes band. 

Kent State welcomes new students each fall with KSU Kickoff – two days of activities that help them get to know campus and its resources as they join our Kent State University family. 

Summer Preview KSU days give high school and transfer students and their families an opportunity to get to know Kent State. 

On July 19 and 26, Kent State University Admissions welcomes high school students and transfer students to campus for student-led tours. Visiting students and their parents learn about life at Kent State, support services, programs of study and, sometimes, get to meet campus celebrities.
