I hate going to this class (rant)

It's literally across the entire campus from where I park. The 20 minute walk is so grueling and I cant do it anymore. My body hurts like hell afterwards, I'm sweating like a pig, and today it's cold as hell and raining. Ive already missed a few classes and I don't want to miss anymore, but I can't keep paying for passport parking because it's going to add up quickly (it already has).

I'm just sick of classes being so far away from where I park, and not being able to get a good parking pass each semester because I'm not a grad student or senior. My grade is literally suffering because my body is physically incapable walking to and from this class 4 times a week.

Considering Transferring to Kent State – Looking for Insights on the Psychology Program and Campus Experience

Hi! I’m considering transferring to Kent State and plan to major in Psychology (BA) with a concentration in counseling, and minor in either Business Management or Entrepreneurship. I’ll be commuting, and I’m currently at a small liberal arts school, so I’m used to a lot of personalized help and a tight-knit community. Since Kent is a larger school, I’m wondering how the experience compares. Specifically, do faculty members typically respond to emails in a timely manner, and do you feel that you get the individual help/attention you need as a student? Also, to current Psych majors, I’d love to hear about your experiences with the program. I’d really appreciate any insights/advice from current students. Thank you!

Volunteer work around KSU

Hi all,

I’m looking to get into some volunteer work around KSU. I don’t have a car so something accessible by bus or on foot or super close to the university would be appreciated.

Thanks!

I got accepted!

Hi! I just recently got accepted into Kent State on the main campus at Kent and I was wondering how well their biology program is? I have a lot of family that went there and I was thinking about committing but I'm gonna wait until I get the rest of my decisions back. I have 8 awaiting and I've gotten accepted into 4 schools already (Kent, Cleveland State, Ohio University, Uni of Dayton). I got in for the Biology - BS - Pre-Medicine/Pre-Podiatry/Pre-Dentistry major and i was just wondering if anyone knew if they had a strong program or not

Acceptance chance in PhD Ecology

Hello, I am an international student with 74% in undergrad, 1 internship, 1 thesis and 1 manuscript plus 1 RA experience. I have applied to PhD program as per the suggestion of Prof with whom I have contacted. The concern is, he is saying he can not guarantee the admission as he do not have control over admission process. By seeing my profile, any senior can guess whether I can get enrolled or not, because I have not applied else where ..

dorms

i recently took a tour and i looked at the dorm model rooms. the only one i didn’t want to get was the one with the metal bars as a bed frame but i forget which those are called, and i would need to know if i wanna request which style of dorm i want. not a big deal if i end up in that style but it would be nice if i can try and avoid it.

Visitor parking entrance ticket

When entering the visitor lot closest to student center/library you take a ticket.

Depending on what time you leave, the exit bars are already up.

Does that lot scan your license plates when entering, to keep track of everyone who doesn't or does pay? Just curious if there are any consequences for not paying the $7.50 fee lol.

daily life

i’m not a fan of rural small town living, i’d much rather be a part of a big city, but living in Ohio that’s hard to find. Even though the location of kent is very rural, would you say you still have exciting and fun things to do? i like to party and go out and live it up. what’s the party life? lmk!

Considering commuting next year

I'm currently a first year interior design major living on campus. Living in the dorms isn't horrendous but I've been continuously going home each weekend because I like to spend time with my family. I live in Cleveland, about 40-50 min. away from Kent. I've been considering commuting next year, but I'm not too sure? Especially considering how time consuming studios are....anybody have any advice?

advice about things one might need

I am trying to purchase things for college/my future dorm little by little in advance, so it doesn't all hit me at once, and I constantly feel like im forgetting about tons of stuff. What are some things that are essentials in your college dorm or things that you ended up needing/wishing you had that aren't super obvious? Thanks in advance!

what dorms should I be looking at?

I'm an incoming freshman, planning on starting at Kent in Fall 2025. I am planning on majoring in Interior Design and was wondering if any current students had some advice for good dorms that wouldn't be crazy far from most of the classes for my major, and would also be good for a freshman to live in. Thanks in advance for any responses!

how's the business school

transferring to kent for spring 2025 and doing aeronautical studies, however there's a decent chance i won't be able to get my medical to fly so i was thinking of doing dispatching as a minor whilst pursing either business analytics or just administration. ive heard the business school is generally good, but i wanna know overall opinions on it. what's it like? ive also seen the new ambassador crawford hall that was just finished and it looks nice, how is it so far?
