To do this, you will need to have graduated from high school, or obtained a GED certificate or the equivalent, and be currently enrolled at another higher educational institution with a minimum 2.5 cumulative GPA. 

Note that as a guest student, you may only enroll for up to 18 semester hours and will not be receiving a Kent State degree. You also won’t be able to apply for financial aid through 5XÉçÇø, however you might still be able to do so through your home institution.

  2. Submit the Prerequisite Confirmation form and a copy of your transcript
  3. Apply to 5XÉçÇø as an Undergraduate Guest
  4. Complete and submit the Pre-Approval Application form
  5. Once your Kent State application and Pre-Approval Application form is processed, you will receive an email confirmation indicating if you are accepted or wait-listed along with further details on completing the required Commitment Contract – a formal agreement confirming your participation in the New York City Fashion study away program.
