Kent State University at Stark is a public four-year regional campus located in North Canton, Ohio, serving the Akron and Canton metropolitan areas. The campus offers a broad liberal arts and sciences curriculum and enrolls just over 3,400 students, functioning as an accessible entry point to a major state university system.
In-state tuition is $8,105 annually, with out-of-state tuition at $17,863. The total cost of attendance matches tuition, as the campus does not include room and board in its published figures—most students commute from the surrounding suburbs. Enrollment is relatively small compared to main-campus Kent State, creating a more intimate academic environment.
This campus works well for students seeking a four-year degree from an established university without relocating to a residential campus, or those beginning their studies before transferring to Kent State's main campus in nearby Ravenna. Ask about transfer pathways, support services, and whether credits earned here apply seamlessly to other Kent State locations. Visit www.kent.edu/stark for more information.
