About Access and Opportunity at K-State
From the very beginning, our commitment to access, opportunity and success has remained unchanged.
A Legacy of Access, Success and Opportunity
Kansas State University has long maintained a demonstrable commitment to diversity and inclusion. Since 1863, as the nation’s first operational land-grant university, K-State has heralded “full educational privileges” with open enrollment to all students regardless of gender, race or creed. From the very beginning, our commitment to access, opportunity and success has remained unchanged.
We strive to be an institution of higher learning that values and champions the contributions, interests and narratives of diverse cultural and social groups. We prepare our students for global citizenry through an increased depth of understanding and critical examination of issues and topics along the diversity continuum. No matter your field of expertise or professional goals, K-State offers an unbeatable combination of opportunity and support. K-State has been recognized at the national level for our diversity and inclusion efforts. We also have a long history of offering institutional awards for diversity.
