Welcome to Student Orientation! This Web site has been put together to assist you with your transition to Kent State University's Kent Campus. Whether you are a new first-year freshman, a transfer student from another college/university, a transitional student from one of our Regional Campuses or an adult student, you will find information in this site relative to your needs.

It is recommended that you start your orientation with the information contained in the "General" category, followed by the category that represents you (i.e. New Freshmen, Transfer, Regional, or Adult).

We have created a "Virtual Orientation" which is specifically tailored to our transfer, regional campus, and adult students. If this sounds like you, click on "Virtual" above!

If you are a parent or a family member, please click on the "Families" link above to see information specifically for you.

Welcome to Kent State University!
