Kentucky State University

Established in 1886 to train Black teachers, the State Normal School for Colored Persons began with just three educators and 55 students. Additional programs were soon added to expand opportunities for Black students in agriculture, mechanics, and home economics. Accreditation followed, and by 1972, the school became Kentucky State University. Walk the tree-lined campus of this historic HBCU to spot the original Jackson Hall building and state-of-the-art research facilities.

Accessibility: Kentucky State University is generally ADA-accessible. The campus provides reasonable accommodations to campus visitors with disabilities through the Office of Disability Services in Hathaway Hall, Room 107.
