Austin Peay State University

Austin Peay State University is a major university with a small college feel. Situated in the heart of downtown, the campus is convenient to restaurants, shopping, professional theatre, and outdoor recreation. With several thousand students both on-site and online, the beautiful campus is the perfect backdrop to a historic downtown. 

On campus, enjoy the state's only Center of Excellence for the Creative Arts, which brings renowned performers, writers, artists, and musicians to campus to work with students and perform for the community. Along campus walkways and inside buildings, you’ll find impressive public art by faculty and alumni.

At all APSU athletics venues Govs fans are admitted free to all regular season matches with an APSU student I.D. or military I.D. 

The George & Sharon Mabry Concert Hall has been ranked alongside Carnegie Hall for its acoustics and aesthetics. Enjoy performances and events in this prestigious venue year-round.

The university takes great pride in its moniker as a community showpiece. Each year hundreds of civic groups and business leaders join students for a spring workday to ensure the campus is in bloom for a new season.
