East 34th–Campus Station is station on the RTA Rapid Transit system in Cleveland, Ohio , USA, serving the Red , Green and Green Lines . It is located just east of East 34th Street near the intersection of East 34th and Broadway, on the north side of the CSX railway tracks, and below the bridge that carries East 34th Street over the railway tracks.

The station is somewhat unusual in that it combines a high-level platform Rapid Transit station with a low-level platform Light Rail station. The low-level Island Platform is located on the northwestern end of the station adjacent to East 34th Street, and the high-level island platform extends southeastward from it. Both the light rail and the heavy rail subway cars share the station.

Although the station bears the name "Campus," it is somewhat of a misnomer as the Cuyahoga Community College campus is not a convenient walk from the station. The station does offer bus connections to that campus as well as to Cleveland State University . It also provides convenient service for those working at the Main Post Office .
