Ashland Community Information
The University is part of the small city of Ashland where people are friendly and welcoming to international students. A sign just outside of town truthfully declares, "Welcome to Ashland:  World Headquarters of Nice People".  The quiet, peaceful city is about an hour from Ohio's largest cities--Cleveland and Columbus. Ashland University is located in a residential area of the city, about a ten-minute walk from downtown. Ashland, Ohio's web page.
