Murray State University

Murray State University’s highest priorities are student learning and excellent teaching, blending the range of educational opportunities often experienced at research institutions with the nurturing student-teacher interactions usually found at smaller universities. As a comprehensive public university dedicated to diversity, global awareness, and intellectual curiosity, we actively engage students, faculty, staff, and the community in collaborative scholarship, creative activity, and research. We invest in our communities through thoughtful public service in our 18-county service region and beyond. Our uniqueness arises from our combination of academic excellence, welcoming atmosphere, and dedication to student success through mentored, real-world learning opportunities.

Why you should attend?

Murray State provides affordable and accessible education opportunities on our main and regional campuses with locations in close proximity to both Fort Campbell and Fort Knox. We offer in-state tuition to qualified veterans and dependents and match D.O.D. tuition awards provided for active-duty service members. With services such as free mental health counseling, peer support through our Veteran Student Organization, and amenities such as our dedicated veteran's lounge, Murray State makes veteran student success a priority by assisting service members in the transition from military to student life.
