Serving as the cultural and educational center of the region, Delta State University is located in Cleveland. The Mississippi Delta, a 20-county, northwestern region, rich in various ethnic and cultural groups, provides approximately 80 percent of the University's enrollment. Between and 10 and 15 percent of the students attend from other parts of the state, while slightly under 10 percent of the students reside outside the state. Accordingly, the University identifies the Delta as its primary public service region, while acknowledging the importance of research and service that also benefits the state and nation.
