Overview

Kennesaw State University was chartered in 1963 by the Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia (USG).

This school is phenomenal. I just graduated and the students I walked amongst are some of the hardest workers and best students. They are humble to the core and Kennesaw State University has immense opportunities for the students who really want to go out there and take the initiative to have a go at them. If you are a local and are planning on sending your kid to a university and also want them to be at home whilst doing so then this school is perfect. The professors here are absolutely brilliant and are doing cutting edge research (speaking as a CSM graduate). You can make your own experience. And personally if you’re a rising college freshman reading this then 100% go tour the campus, eat at the dining hall, talk to the current students and also implore on learning about the academics you’ll be surprised at what you can do within 4 years. Absolutely get involved. Good luck and congratulations to the new graduates Class of 2025!! State universities are hidden gems and go under appreciated and this university serves as a prime example.

The Associate Director, Housing and Residence Life, Alli Hurtado, just admitted on the phone that they KNOWLY accepted 3x the amount of housing applications and now 1/3 of the students that needed housing are being ignored due to the fact that the semester starts in 3 days. The school Housing and Residence Life should be notifying students who don't have housing ahead of time so arrangements can be made. Instead they put you on a "waitlist". Either you have the space for X amount of students or you don't, PERIOD. Lets think this out together. If I have 5 rooms available and 8 applications, I fill the 5 rooms, common sense would be to let the other 3 know that the rooms have been filled and they can re-apply if one OPENS up.. Its not rocket science.. its disgusting, every year KSU overbooks the housing just to send students away that could have been enrolled at another school IF they were notified in a timely matter that their housing needs would not be met. Shame on you all - UGA would NEVER - GO DAWGS . Will be addressing this issue with the UNIVERSITY SYSTEM OF GEORGIA since KSU seems like they don't have the competence to deal with this operations problem in Housing and Residence Life department.

I am disappointed in KSU housing. They demand a 200 despot to continue the process of housing and that 200 is nonrefundable and they don't have ENOUGH dorms for students. Waitlist is to long. Theyll then continue asking if you want to buy insurance for dorms as if you got a dorm and turns out, you dont. Money rip off one after another. If you cant provide a dorm, do not charge students on anything or even ask them to continue or that should be a refundable instead of nonrefundable.

Bad experience with Graduate Admissions. Nasia Perez made the application extremely stressful. I wanted to be admitted for summer but she made the application process stressful and now not able to take summer classes even though I received permission from program co-ordinator to take summer classes. I have always loved KSU but admission process leave a bad taste in my mouth

For a high school graduations, the venue is a good size, but the volume of the audio needs to be adjusted because you cannot hear anything over the sound of the HVAC

This campus is booming with a vibrant excitement. Met the President, really cool lady and her staff. (Very comfortable conference table chairs)

I visited Kennesaw State 2years ago and it is an institution that anyone would be proud to attend. It has a beautiful campus with plenty of parking for students who may commute. School of journalism has excellent teachers who will teach you all about being a reporter. Everyone is welcoming and the campus is very clean with a lot of trees
