Kent State University at Kent Top Questions

What kind of person should not attend this school?

Dakota

A person pursuing an engineering degree should not attend this school. Kent State University does not actually have an engineering degree, it is only an applied engineering degree-so it is not quite the same thing. Besides that, a person who does not like large campuses should not attend Kent State University. The campus is pretty large and spread out. This also means that the class sizes are extremely large. Ranging from 20 students up to 200 students. If a student does not want that large of a class size, do not attend Kent State University.

Chloe

The only person that I can think of that should not attend Kent State University is someone who doesn't like to be involved in anything. One of the things I love most about my school is that no matter what day it is there is always something going on around campus. There are ways for every type of person to get involved in this community. This campus is sincerely a community, or as we say Flash Family.

Leanne

I believe the type of person who should not attend Kent State University is someone who is lazy and unwiliing to learn. These people are the type who will skip class and not put any time aside to study and do the work necessary for college level classes. The people who should not attend Kent State University are the ones who come to college to party instead of focus and further their education.

Katie

Kent State University is a well respected university that has many degrees and majors to offer. I believe that a student that is hard working, disciplined and focused would fit in well to Kent State. Contrary to that, students that have poor work ethics and little motivation to attend class and sort out their priorities should save themselves money and time and chose not to attend this university. The type of person who is unfocused and tends to focus on the social aspect of college should not attend.

Brianne

There isn't anyone that I could think of that wouldn't enjoy and appreciate attending Kent Sate University. The campus is so diverse with so many different people in all shapes and sizes. Also, I think that the disable are given the same amount of opportunities as anyone eles and treated to their special needs. There is no reason anyone should feel that they cannot attend this school.

Sophia

The type of person that should attend Kent State University, is someone who had a lot of ambition to put themselves out there. There are dozens upon dozens of activities to do, hundreds of types of people to meet and the overall atmosphere of the campus is beautiful and relaxing. If you are looking for a place that can make you feel at home, then this is the place for you. There is never the chance that you can say that you "don't know what to do today/this weekend/at any time!".

Kyle

The only reason I can think of for a person to not attend this school, is if we do not offer your major of choice! This school is built upon many different personalities and people. This is not a school for a specific person, but for a whole group of different people!

Brian

This is a school for everybody. The price is right, and it is just about what you would expect out of a regional campus in Ohio.

Samantha

If you are someone who does not like big schools should not go here. It is a big beautiful campus with many lecture hall classes that hold up to 400 people in the lecutres. So if you are someone who likes small class sizes like high school you should not go here.

Victoria

This is a tough question. Kent State has a lot to offer with great programs from nursing to graphic design. If you do not enjoy large class sizes, then this isn't the school for you.

Megan

If you are looking for a small campus and knowing variety of people in different majors, I would not recommend Kent State because, as a Fashion Design/Fashion Merchandising student, you mostly only see the others students in the fashion program. Also the campus is very large and there is a large amount of people on campus on a daily basis.

Amy

I don't think there is a particular kind of person that should not attend this school. Whether you're an honors student or the typical student, an athlete or walking-is-my-excercise kind of person, a theater major or a mathematics major or undecided, this is the kind of school where everyone can find a place they belong. While I imagine an out of state student might question whether to attend a state school, I think even they can find their place. This school easily becomes home.

Michael

As with all colleges/universities; any person who is not committed to their own betterment should not attend. College is a chance to make yourself better, learn skills and tools in order to succeed in life, and focus on your interests.

Jeanette

Someone who would not take college seriously should not attend this school.

nicole

If you want a very eventful and big campus do not attend Kent. Also, if you are looking for a big downtown area, or busy city area near campus, this is not the place.

Mackenzie

A person that lies night life or big cities should not attend this school. Kent is not a city life town and I would not attend this college if you like the things urban settings have to offer. But, other than that Kent is a great school.

Jodi

A person who does not have a plan for their future, is not willing to make sacrafices, or able to dedicate themselves to their education, should not apply to Kent State University.

DJunai

The time of person that shouldn't attend this school would be unmotivated students. People are required to do things for themselves here and if you are used to people doing things for you then it would not work out for you.

Kiya

A type of person who should not go to Kent State is a person who has no intension on learning anything at Kent.

Jessica

Anyone who wants to experience a larger school with a lot of diversity and culture. It has good academics and good socialization.

Julianne

Someone who is not self-directed, motivated, and willing to work hard should not attend the school.

Lauren

Someone should not attend if they are shy or have trouble fitting in. In this school, you have to find your own place.

Kori

Kent State University is really for anybody looking to attend a good 4 year university! They offer some great programs and are affordable for anyone, they have several branches as well!

Nathan

I believe this school pushes you to do the best you can. The classes are difficult but only because they want you to try your best and strive for excellence. I do not think someone should attend this school that is not serious about their future. Someone who is going to goof around and is not determined to graduate on time and have a successful career should not enroll in this school. I think this is one of the best universities to attend so if someone is going to enroll at kent they need to be determined to be succesful.

Logan

someone who plans on living on campus and may not be able to financially offord a private school. anyone can fit in if they want to class times and sizes are flexible and it's easy to have a fun social life while juggling the stresses of college.

Brooke

I am new to this school so I don't know exactly what the pros and cons are of the school. But if you like smaller schools it's probably not the school for you.

Jodi

Someone who has no focus or ambition (or does not want a Liberal Arts Education) because you have to have good time management, organizational, and study skills to succeed here, especially when you get into your major classes. However, there are teachers, students, and other staff that can help students develop these skills. Conversely, new students need learn how to develop their own goals and strategies, as well as self-motivation and self-efficacy in order to become self-sufficient, aware, and responsible citizens. Anyone can learn, but you have to have the focus and desire to do so.

Meaghan

I actually think this school is perfect for everyone. It has a little but if something for everyone that comes! I love KSU and would suggest it to anybody.

Monica

Anyone should attened Kent state, I don't think a school should turn a student away because that means they are making some what of an effort towards school and that should be rewarded.

Michelle

In my opinion, anyone who isn't willing to work, and students who just wants to party. For me, some courses that I took got a bit challenging for me but I pulled through because I want to succed. If you know your not studious or if you didn't like school before college i wouldn't choose Kent State as the place you will be for the next 4+ years in your life. Also, if you are looking for small class room sizes then maybe Kent State shouldn't be your choice in a college.

Jenna

Someone who does not want to provide the work and determination needed to succeed.

Kathy

I feel if you don't want to try and better yourself you should not attend. The teachers care a lot and it is just rude to not even try when they give their best for you.

Kimberly

Someone who shouldn't attend this school is someone who doesn't do well in large classes. During class there isn't time for any one on one time. Even after class a professor might have a few students that need help. That's the only real downside to Kent.

Lillian

Kent State is a diverse school that has people from every walk of life. Only someone that is close-minded, unaccepting, and does not plan to be active on campus should not go here. There truly is a place for everyone at Kent if you look hard enough. Someone that isn't independent or self-sufficient would not be a good fit because while there are tons of resources here, there is a great sense of freedom on campus.

Carl

Anyone can attend this school and make it just fine. But someone who is conservative, religious, and not considered "in need" by FAFSA shouldn't live on campus because it is expensive and 90{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} of the students are focused only on drinking, drugs, and sex. Cigarette butts line the edge of the sidewalks and liberal agenda is posted everywhere.

Katherine

Anyone can attend this school but you must be extremely prepared to suck up. I recomend only living on campus.

Katie

Someone close minded

Corbin

I would say if you aren't willing to work hard and put forth your best effort, than this school isn't for you. It is a challanging school with great classes and it works you hard.

Kaylee

The only people who should not attend Kent State University are those whose major is not offered here. Kent State is an excellent school for anyone who is willing to further their education.

Corey

This school fits well for just about anyone.

Sarah

I think that someone that doesn't enjoy learning and isn't willing to put an effort into the work that they are meant to do should not attend this school. College is a choice, and it truly is not the right thing for everyone. In my opinioin, this is totally fine, but I think that Kent State is not meant for people who waste their time doing something that they don't want to do.

Sara

Any individual who does not deal well with change or who is not open to views and opinions different from their own should probably not attend Kent State University. Kent's population is filled with people of many different views. An open-minded individual would do well here.

Hannah

A person who is close-minded and not willing to respect other peoples' cultures would have a difficult time attending Kent State. There are many different ethnic backgrounds, cultural differences, and a wide variety of different traditions that most people have not experienced.

Jessica

People who shouldn't attend this school would be people who think they can skate through without problems. With student debt in the trillions, try to get all the financial aid that you can!

Hannah

The type of person that sould not attend this school is someone who is not outgoing and willing to meet new people. It is very hard to get around campus and get to know people if you are not willing to meet others.

Jessica

Kent State University is a very welcoming and diverse campus that attracts many different types of people. However, if there were to be someone looking for a small campus and small student population, Kent State is not for them. The only downside is that students do seem to get "lost in the shuffle",only because KSU is a school to more than 25,000 students. It is spread out over several streets and has much housing. Aside from this Kent is a great school and no matter how big the student population may be, they offer a great education.

HAO

1. people who do not like quiet because kent is a quiet town. 2. people who do not love animals because we need to protect squirrels. 3. people who do not like study because this university provides so many good resources for studying. For example, the library.

Erin

Kent is very is a very "go-with-the-flow" kind of place. So in a cultural and maybe even political sense, someone who is against "hippies" would probably be uncomforatable here. As a college student here, I am comfortable, because I go with the flow. I also think someone who is immature should not go to college here, or anywhere else for that matter. A person needs to be emotionally ready to take the step of moving away from home. If someone can't act as an adult, they don't belong here, because we are adults.

Rose

someone who doesn't want to work .

Michelle

Someone who is very conservative.
