At UK, we recognize that it’s not only what you learn, but where you learn. We have invested $2.7 billion over the last decade to transform our campus into a state-of-the-art space that promotes deeper connection, comfort and learning. Take our Gatton Student Center, which has become a favorite gathering space for all of our students. Or our residence halls - all built within the last 15 years. UK is one of only eight universities in the nation that has agriculture, engineering, law, medicine and pharmacy on one contiguous campus. So, go. Discover what’s wildly possible.
“I came to UK because of the equine science and management program. I applied to UK, was accepted and received enough financial aid to make it a possibility. I came to visit campus for orientation and as soon as I stepped on campus, I knew that I was finally exactly where I wanted to be!”
