Clarksville is the home of APSU.  You'll find it feels like home, too.  The campus is just a short walk from Clarksville's historic downtown.  The nearby Riverwalk offers the perfect spot to enjoy an afternoon picnic on the Cumberland River. Austin Peay is easily accessible from all directions via major interstate highways.
