Kent State University at Ashtabula is a satellite campus of Kent State University. The campus is located in Ashtabula, Ohio, United States, and was established in 1958. It is the northernmost of Kent State's seven satellite campuses in Northeast Ohio, known as regional campuses, approximately 60 miles (97 km) northeast of the main campus in Kent. Students can begin any of Kent State's nearly 300 undergraduate majors, and can complete several bachelor's degrees as well as more than 20 associate programs entirely at the Ashtabula campus. Classes have been held at the present campus since 1967.

It is still in use as the main gateway to Lake Erie from the Ashtabula River. At night it is beautifully illuminated with bright blue lights that reflect in the water making the harbor glow.
