Campus Connection Incentive Offer Ending 5/12

Dear Kent State Student,

Previously you received the Campus Connection offer below and we wanted to update you on the offer’s status.

The Campus Connection offer will end at 5:00 pm on Friday, May 12.

Greetings!

You are receiving this email because you have a fall housing contract and are currently living on-campus. Because of your status, you have the option to cancel your fall housing contract and pursue another housing arrangement.

Should you choose to cancel your housing contract and live off campus, you are eligible for Kent State University’s new Campus Connection package. The Campus Connection package is an exclusive, limited time opportunity for the first 200 students who cancel their housing contract. This package is designed to keep you connected to campus life while living off campus!

The Campus Connection package includes the following for the fall 2023 semester:

• FREE Campus Connection meal plan ($1500 value!)
  • The Campus Connection meal plan is a uniquely designed meal plan that includes:
    • 120 meal swipes to use at Eastway or DI Dining
    • $300 declining balance
    • Meal Exchange
• Access to the Tri-Towers Rotunda, which provides access to Rosie’s Diner and Market, tutoring services, and the Tri-Rec.
• Priority parking permit access, which provides a prioritized window of time to select a commuter parking pass.
• Barnes & Noble Campus store credit of $250 for books, supplies, or apparel.
• A refund for your $200 housing pre-payment.

Don’t delay! The Campus Connection package is only available to the first 200 eligible students who cancel their housing contract for fall 2023.

Off-Campus Housing Accommodations
Some of you might choose to commute from home, while others may want to explore housing accommodations in the city or surrounding areas. If you would like to pursue housing accommodations in the area, please use the Local Housing webpage as a resource. If you choose to lease from a property owner or management company that is not listed, we encourage you to contact the City of Kent Community Development Department to inquire about the number of legal tenants allowed at a property and to get confirmation the landlord is registered with the City and compliant with rental licensing program. The city of Kent’s Community Development Department is aware students may reach out and can be contacted at 330-678-8108.
