The University of Kansas sits atop a historic hill known as Mount Oread. It was a challenge for settlers along the Oregon Trail, and it was the staging area for William Quantrill's raid during the Civil War. It is the highest point in Lawrence, making it the ideal location for the stately campus. Founded in 1865, the KU campus covers more than 1,000 acres. With its high-ranking programs, the University of Kansas Natural History Museum, the Lied Center of Kansas, and the Spencer Museum of Art, the University of Kansas attracts students from all over, making Lawrence the largest college town in the state.
Considered one of America's best college towns, Lawrence is all about supporting their Jayhawks. The Kansas Jayhawks are part of the Big 12 Conference, and you can cheer on the Jayhawks football team at Memorial Stadium, the baseball team at Hoglund Ballpark, or head to Allen Fieldhouse for Basketball. The Jayhawks have won more than 23 championships, many in basketball.
You'll find a variety of apartments near the University of Kansas. Neighborhoods to consider include West Campus, Schwegler, University Place, West Hills, and Centennial.

School data provided by
GreatSchools
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
