So far as an animated arts major, I really love what I've been taught from all the friendly and supportive staff! However if you want those nice teachers, this website is your friend!! You're gonna love it here if you're planning on coming! Not to mention the excellent art program here, I got taught more than what my high school could ever do!

KU literally changed my life. I was a shy, closed minded individual when I decided to enroll in this school that was almost 500 miles from where I grew up. When I left, I was involved in the international student club and have since traveled all over and landed an amazing career through my senior year internship program that I am now 8 years into.

Amazing! Best professors, amazing community, beautiful campus, great education! Im an education major and we have one of the best programs for one of the best prices. It would be a mistake not to look into Kutztown as an option for your future.

I love it here! This place feels like my home. I was suprised how similar the town was to my own hometown it was like they took my home town and built a big school where the BBT bank is. People here are also much nicer to me here. Theres so much to do, the professors are friendly. It has its problems here and there. But for the most part, GOLDEN

Do not come here if you enjoy good food, accessible parking, caring and capable professors, or a campus with interesting people/opportunities. Come here if you need a cheap school close to your house. I have personally had 5 friends drop out within the past year, and I can’t blame them. Also— the housing office is evil.

Never heard of KU b4 moving to PA recently. Transferred in from a D1. Big mistake. KU is broke. I've seen better Community Colleges. School is very outdated. Compare their curriculums to a better school, trust me you'll wish you went somewhere else. Curriculum comparable to my HS. KU is a Walmart of colleges. You get what you pay for. Save ur $$

Not an Amazing school, no longer a business-first school. They have good education programs and STEM but that's about it. Food is no good, the main street is no good, staff of the University claims they care but only care about your money. My advisor has blown me off throughout the years.
Overall 1.8
Save your money for a real institution. Professors typically do not help students and neither do the advisors. The classes and curriculum are a joke. My community college offered more for me than this university does.

The shuttle trackers are horrible especially off campus . They tell us the wrong times and make us late to class which ultimately affects our grades . Which can cause us to fail . This is horrible . And chick fil a needs more workers !!
Overall 1.9
Well-spirited and often well-meaning, but not a quality education. Students often exhibit a strong sense of university pride, but professors are generally bitter and openly speak of how poor the college is. To make matters worse, it is located in the middle of nowhere with notoriously bad Wi-Fi. I cannot in good faith recommend this university.
Overall 1.9
KU has AWFUL faculty. The classes aren't hard- a majority of the battle is just trying to navigate the professors. I've had low-quality instruction and the professors just aren't motivated people. They are slackers and as a result, you have a campus full of slackers. Not a good school for academics.
