“I didn’t know this when I applied, but I’ve learned quickly that KSC has an amazing faculty. The classes are small and personal, and there are resources for all areas of study. If you come with an open mind and dedication to learning, KSC will help you reach your goals as a student.”
– Kevin Malicki 2011 , Communication major
What Keene State College is
Are you interested in being actively involved in your own education? Are you more of a hands-on learner than a “lecture learner”? You will thrive here.
- Focused on you, the undergraduate student, and your future.
- Large enough for boundless opportunities; small enough to make them happen.
- An academic community that can bring out the best in any student who has the desire to succeed. (More than 30 percent of our students are the first in their family to attend college.)
- Dedicated to preparing you for active citizenship and meaningful work.
- A place where a willing heart and able hands are quickly put to good use.
- A place where people have a passion for global awareness, for sustainable lifestyles, for community and service.
- A good value. You pay to come here for four years. We equip you for the next 40. That’s a promise.
What Keene State is not
(Let’s be honest: We can’t promise everything to everyone. Not everyone will be happy here.)
- Not a large urban university.
- Not a small private college.
