Record-CourierKent State is planning to open an office in Rwanda to help recruit African students to the university. The university said the not-for-profit community benefit company will serve as a "strategic starting point for engaging in the African continent’s expanding higher education market." An additional 6,000 students from North Africa studied in the U.S. last academic year. The University of Rwanda has proposed office space in Kigali, Rwanda. The effort will be similar to Kent State's use of a legal presence in Florence, Italy; Geneva, Switzerland; and New Delhi, India.
