A Kent State Florence Application can be downloaded at www.kent.edu/florence or copies are available in the Kent State Office of Global Education. Application Deadlines April 15 for fall semester October 1 for spring semester Some cohorts may have earlier deadlines; see academic area websites for exact dates.
Applicants must be in good standing at their home institution. An Admission Decision will be made as soon as your application file is complete. Applications will not be considered for admission until all items have been submitted. Your Complete Application will include a $30 application fee, two recommendation forms, a waiver of responsibility, official transcripts, and six standard passport photos. See www.kent.edu/florence or visit the Kent State Office of Global Education for details and application materials. In addition to the above application requirements, Non-Kent State Students must complete a Guest Student Application, giving you temporary student status, and a Transcript Release Authorization, so a transcript will automatically be sent to your home institution. Both are simple forms, and there is no fee for either. Links to both can be found with application details on www.kent.edu/florence. A valid Passport and Italian Student Visa are also required for participation. If you don’t have a passport, go to travel.state.gov to apply. There is no fee for the Italian student visa, and the Kent State Office of Global Education will assist in securing it. For questions call or email the Office of Global Education: 330-672-7980 or EdAbroad@kent.edu, or stop by 106 Van Campen Hall and speak with an Education Abroad Advisor.
