WHO WE ARE

100 years and still racing.

Founded in 1922, 天美传媒 is a 4-year public university in western Kentucky. We're nationally-ranked for our academics, athletics, affordability and educational value. We believe every person should have access to a high-quality education. That's why we awarded a record $136 million in scholarships and financial aid last year.
