Kent State University at Ashtabula,[2] commonly referred to as Kent State University Ashtabula and Kent State Ashtabula and formerly known as Kent State University Ashtabula Campus, is a public university offering baccalaureate and associate degree programs located along the shores of Lake Erie in Ashtabula, Ohio. It is the northernmost campus of Kent State University, an eight-campus network serving northeastern Ohio. Established in 1958, Kent State Ashtabula is known locally for its nursing program, which accounts for nearly 75 percent of registered nurses in Ashtabula County.[3] Students can begin any of Kent State's nearly 300 undergraduate majors, and can complete several bachelor's degrees entirely at the Ashtabula campus as well as more than 20 associate programs.[4] Classes have been at the present campus since 1967.

Recently, the campus has undergone numerous renovations to create a more modern look, including an updated driveway, café, student services, and commons area.
