- The most important thing i like about my University is the amazing Library. It's a 14 floor building with individual and group study rooms, great collection of books and excellent service.
- The neighborhood of the University is quite calm which is another aspect that makes me want to stay within the campus.
- The lush green trees in and around the campus which are well-maintained make it a great sight during all seasons of the year.
Dislikes
- The weather sometimes gets unpredictable and it's hard to attend classes in peak winters.
- The faculty could be improved.
- The intake of students can be filtered out by ensuring quality over quantity.
- I opted for off-campus accommodation. For this, I enrolled in a telegram group for housing and reached out to the concerned rental agency.
- The monthly rent for a 2bhk in our community is $1430 with all the facilities like gas, electricity, washers and dryers, internet included.
- There were absolutely zero challenges in finding the house.
- Yes, always lookout for the right roommates and keep your expenses at check. Do not spend more on the housing when there are good options within the budget.
- My accommodation is about 1.8 miles from the main college building and 1.5 miles from where my classes are held. Most Indian graduate students stay off-campus in different communities. There is not one specific area where you'd find maximum Indians.



Likes
- It's the state of the art campus with impressive infrastructure.
- Flexibility in choosing the courses and mode of the classes to attend.
- Few excellent professors.
Dislikes
- Inclement weather is discouraging sometimes.
- Accommodation provided by the college is expensive (for those who are thinking about staying on campus).
- Transportation provided by the college is good, could be better. (It's free though).
- I used online platform to get the accommodation.
- The monthly rent was 310 dollars for 2 bedroom and 1 and a half bathroom apartment which include the refrigerator, air conditioner, free heater and wi-fi.
- I would suggest the future students to secure accommodation off-campus since it's affordable and spacious as well.
- It's a 10 minute walk from out apartment. Most of the students either stay at Holly park apartments, Genesis, Ryan's place or Eagle's landing.

- It is a public university. They have diverse international students from all over the world.
- Facilities provided to international students, which make it easy for ongoing processes and finding new things across the campus.
- Faculties here are very helpful and they try to not give much stress to the academic curriculum.
Dislikes
- Location- Kent is a small town which limits the job search within the city as compared to major cities like California, and Seattle.
- Weather- Kent is located in the north side of Ohio which experiences long winters, and as an Indian, I don't like it much.
- Parking Issues- Many students complain about the parking space as it is limited, most of the students park their vehicles near the stadium and then come by bus.
- Many first-year students choose on-campus housing for convenience and proximity to classes. On-campus options include dormitories with various amenities like meal plans, laundry facilities, and communal spaces. University Housing Portal: For on-campus options.
- Online Platforms: Websites like Zillow, Apartments.com, and Rent.com are popular for off-campus housing. Student Groups: Many students join groups on platforms like Discord or Telegram to connect with other students and find roommates or housing leads. Facebook groups for Kent State international students are also commonly used.

- Behavior and cultural acceptance towards college students.
- Abundance of extracurricular activities such as Zumba, yoga, meditation, football, table tennis, etc
- Very well behaved and friendly faculties of the college.
I chose overall 3 colleges for my study abroad based on my tuition fee structure, course curriculum, and duration of my master's program in the US. I got accepted in all 3 and Kent State University was one among them. I prefer moving to Kent State because of the spring session start of my master's program. I was able to start early so that’s the reason I preferred moving to Kent, Ohio for my master's program.

Dislikes
- Nothing much, it was a small university with limited research help, but still if you want to grow there is a lot of chance here. There is a lot of support from department side and there help you in a friendly manner.

- Good University, and most of the visa officers have a good impression on this one.
I would not say the best, but this is a reasonable university with good studies, and good faculty.
Likes
- The course curriculum and lab work offered as a part of the program I've chosen has been the major reason of my inclination towards this university. It provides numerous opportunities on campus for students to pursue a part time job that really helps in managing their living expenses.
- The university provides a lot of facilities in terms of transportation, recreation, medical, food, groceries etc at nominal prices. The culture here is extremely diverse and accepting. There are a lot of events held to honor different traditions and beliefs.
Dislikes
- This university does not offer scholarships of any kind. This is one thing that I dislike. I personally feel that the effort put by the university to create networking platforms with working professionals is nearly negligible.
My overall experience at Kent state university has been a very pleasant one. My stay in Kent has nurtured me into an independent individual. My spectrum of imagination and application has been broadened because of the knowledge I gained at KSU.
It's close to my hometown. I also like the programs it offers and it has a pretty campus. I knew kids who went there before me too. So that really pulled me in. There are good professors too and others.
The fashion program is the third in the country behind New York and Los Angeles and they gave me scholarships and have a really good program. I also like it because it is no too far away from my home town, but far enough that it gives me the college experience.
