About MSU

In line with goals for exemplary academics, the school boasts over 75 programs from undergraduate to doctoral levels. Some degree programs are unique to the school - for example, Appalachian Studies and Horsemanship are not concentrations that you'd be likely to find elsewhere.

Student Ratings
Ashley Hamm
Morehead has a very friendly atmosphere. People go out of their way to help you. Its also rated the #1 safest college in Kentucky. That makes me feel even better about going away to school there. They have many choices for dining which is important to me. I was really impressed with the excitement from the professors when talking to them.
