INDIANAPOLIS, IN / JUNIOR
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.
“What I love about the University of Kentucky are the resources they have available to students as a large university. As a healthcare student, I was impressed by the hands-on learning you can do because of the hospitals and clinics being part of campus. I felt the material would prepare me as well as the instructors who work in the fields I am aiming to. ”
