The Center for Adult and Veteran Services enhances the experiences of adult, military-connected, and parenting students both in and out of the classroom. Our inclusive focus ensures an engaging student experience through programs, services, and compliance with military-connected federal agencies.

We understand that without the information and assistance you need, attending college as an adult, parenting student, veteran, or servicemember can be challenging. The Center for Adult and Veteran Services provides necessary tools to help you attain the highest success throughout your educational experience. Our primary mission remains helping you navigate the many services, resources, and benefits that are available to you at Kent State University.

Some of our accolades include:

-Named a Military Friendly school for 13 consecutive years, now with Gold status (top 5%).

-Awarded a Collegiate Purple Star by the State of Ohio.

-Named a Military Friendly spouse school.

-Awarded the 2020 Outstanding Undergraduate Adult Learner Program by NASPA.
