","Kentucky State University is a historically black college founded in 1886 as a school dedicated to the sole purpose of training teachers for the African American school-age population. More than 125 years later, KSU has expanded its mission to offer a liberal arts education that prepares a diverse student population to compete in a multifaceted, ever-changing global society. KSU is also a land-grant institution with programs to study and address agricultural and family life issues offered through the College of Agriculture, Food Science and Sustainable Systems. The university continually finds ways to help students fulfill their dreams of earning a degree, whether securing them financial aid to begin and continue their educational journey; preparing students for college-level study with refresher courses and pre-entry programs; offering online classes; or offering courses taught by accessible professors in small-class settings. The faculty, staff and students embody the most diverse mix in the Commonwealth of Kentucky. More than 40 percent of KSU students represent various ethnicities besides African American, including those from Central America, Africa and Asia. KSU provides something for just about everyone, from traditional liberal arts fare to business, science, agricultural studies, fine arts, education, criminal justice, social work, journalism and aquaculture. Its nursing program is widely known for preparing skilled and knowledgeable professionals. In addition, the university has begun the work of developing the Doctor of Nursing Practice program following the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools approval of KSUs move from a Level III to Level V classification. As a result, KSU can now offer up to three doctoral degree programs.In addition, the graduate program has grown to include masters degrees in aquaculture, business administration, computer science, public administration and environmental studies. It also has a masters program in special education thats offered completely online for busy teachers who are required to earn a graduate degree.KSUs relationship with corporate partners has grown stronger in recent years. KSU and Toyota Motor Manufacturing in Kentucky unveiled a unique scholarship program that matches Toyotas need for mechanical engineers with that of top incoming students at Kentucky State University in Frankfort. Beginning in fall 2014, up to five incoming students will receive full-ride scholarships the first three years at KSU on a pre-engineering curriculum, the last two at the University of Kentucky under the Toyota Engineering Scholarship Program. After five years, participants in the program will have an undergraduate degree from Kentucky State and an engineering degree from the University of Kentucky.Alltech and Kentucky State University also have formed a research alliance in which Alltech will provide support for graduate research in agriculture, food sciences and sustainable systems and support undergraduate internships. The purpose of the alliance is to help feed a growing, hungry population by developing sustainable farming techniques and modern farming models. The partnership extends KSUs increased focus on the STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics) fields.Further encouraging interest in scientific research as well as having fun while learning about ecosystems, KSU recently introduced Kentucky River Thorobred. The universitys new aquatic vessel serves as a laboratory for undergraduate and graduate research. The boat will also be used to teach Kentuckys schoolchildren about the rivers history and ecology.","Public, Coed",1886,N/A,Semester,City,"$15.4 million","400 E.

","Centre College offers its students a world of opportunities, highlighted by one of the nation's premier study abroad programs, along with a record of post-graduate success. Over the last decade, an average 85 percent of students studied abroad at least once during their four years at Centre. 97 percent of graduates in the most recent class are employed or pursuing advanced degrees within a year of graduation. For study abroad, nine permanent, semester-long residential programs are available in China, England, France, Japan, Mexico, Northern Ireland, Scotland, and Spain. Shorter three-week programs in January explore an ever-increasing number of countries. Over the last two years alone, destinations have included Argentina, Austria, Barbados, Brazil, Costa Rica, Cuba, Ecuador, Egypt, England, Ghana, India, Israel, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, Morocco, Myanmar, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Panama, Rwanda, Spain, and Uganda. Related, a new semester-long study away program in Washington, D.C. has been so successful that a second program has been added in Chicago, and both include internship components. International study, undergraduate research, and internships are so integral to a Centre education that together they comprise the Centre Commitment, which guarantees study abroad, an internship or research opportunity, and graduation in four years, or Centre will provide up to one more year of tuition for free. An average 93 percent of Centre graduates participate in either an internship and/or an undergraduate research experience, opportunities that have helped students find their first post-graduation jobs or entrance into an ideal graduate program, law school, or medical school. Prestigious fellowships are also won on a regular basis. Rhodes Scholarship recipients, three Goldwater winners in the last five years, and the College's first Gates Cambridge and Boren scholars highlight Centre's stellar academic achievements. Rotary awards for international post-graduate study have also been won the last three years, and Centre is consistently among the nation's top Fulbright producers. A place of high achievement as well as high opportunity, Centre's exceptional commitment to remaining affordable is made possible in part by legions of devoted alumni. For over three decades, more than half of living alumni have made an annual gift to the College. Parent and senior class gifts have also recently hit the 50 percent mark. In addition, Centre's three premier scholarships (Brown, Grissom, and Lincoln) all cover full tuition or better, and the College's annual institutional aid budget exceeds $25 million. Centre is also a place where important conversations take place in and out of the classroom. In 2012, for the second time in a dozen years, Centre's Norton Center for the Arts was the setting for the nation's only Vice Presidential Debate. The Norton Center has also featured visits by the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra, Yo-Yo Ma and the Silk Road Ensemble, the Blue Man Group, Alison Krauss and Union Station, New York Times columnist David Brooks, and Nobel prize-winner Elie Wiesel, to name a few.","Private, Coed",1819,Presbyterian,4-1-4,City,"$273.9 million","600 W.

The university emphasizes the importance of exploration and discovery in the undergraduate experience. Learning occurs through hands-on experiences across all academic disciplines and within every subject imaginable. The lack of a core curriculum fosters academic freedom, which allows students to create their own interdisciplinary paths. They choose classes they are genuinely interested in, not just required to take, so there's a real sense of curiosity around learning that extends beyond the classroom setting. More than 60 percent of Hopkins students double major or minor, often creating unique combinations like electrical engineering and romance languages or biomedical engineering and business. This establishes a dynamic, engaging learning environment where students from various backgrounds bring different perspectives to class discussions. Collaborative learning is fundamental to the academic environment and many spaces on campus are designed to foster collaboration across disciplines. State-of-the-art facilities such as the Undergraduate Teaching Labs or JHU-MICA Film Center also give students access to the latest learning technology. Hopkins professors, another invaluable resource, are experts in their fields who make important contributions to their industries and academia at large. They're enthusiastic about teaching and often include undergraduates in their own ground-breaking research. Students get to know their professors and classmates the way they would at a small liberal arts college but have all of the opportunities of a major research institution with a global reach.
