Ohio State University - Main Campus

Ohio State gave me the backbone education that allowed for my successful career today. People only think of it as a football school, but the academic programs are second to none. Professors were smart, helpful, and often understanding towards student troubles. The campus is absolutely beautiful and you get the best of both worlds with a clear university district, but also being in the heart of Ohio's capital city. Chances for internships, student work programs, and study abroad are plentiful. I also... Read More met some of my best friends at Ohio State. I cannot say enough good things about the school. Go Bucks!

My experience at The Ohio State University was overwhelmingly positive in the way it allowed me to have fun, grow as an individual, and envelope myself in education. To preface, my familial financial circumstances allowed me to graduate debt free, a well as have an allowance of money. I imagine my perspective on the college might be different if I had to work full time or graduated in debt. The Ohio State University fostered major growth in my social and professional networks, as well as bolstering... Read More my resume to allow me to achieve the next steppingstone on my journey. I enjoyed being among the masses at such a large school, something I have heard it a different experience for all students.

I believe this university is called 'The' Ohio State University. Its a very big university and you will want someone to help show you around although you can always plan and explore the university yourself. Try not to be shy and ask a lot of questions. You'll only have to ask once about things if you are able to right down the answers or keep track of everything in your phone by jotting things down somewhere. It really helps to take notes about things to help yourself around campus with transportation,... Read More directions, parking, events and those sort of things. Try to be as social as you can and if your not its okay, just look online for events to join. Even if your not really good at what your joining, try to go for a few sessions of something you may be interested in because you might just meet someone shy as well. Or even possibly a life time friend or a partner. You'll meet lots of people by default without trying just by being yourself and speaking out when you feel you should. Academically, this place is a challenge. You'll get a great education just be sure to pick something your passionate about and you will exceed a lot! If your not sure, that's good, just keep exploring topics they offer courses on and then eventually choose one. Good luck and Go Buckeyes!!

I absolutely loved my time at Ohio State. I always wanted to attend a big school and wanted a typical college experience. My freshman year I made so many friends in my freshman dorm. I spent the rest of my college experience with these same friends. I also made a lot of friends in my major. Ohio State is a big campus, but it never felt big because there were so many student clubs and ways to make friends. I became an RA my sophomore year and I really enjoyed living on campus again as it was so easy... Read More to feel part of the campus community. I loved it so much that I was an RA my junior and senior years too. Some of the best memories from college are from living in the dorms. I really enjoyed my classes, had tons of fun on the weekends with friends, had fun exploring Columbus, spent a semester abroad (I was a Spanish major), joined some interesting student organizations, and overall had a blast at OSU. The degree also really helped me land my “real” job. My college experience blew away my expectations and I am still totally in love with Ohio State. I will always think fondly of my years at OSU. How Firm Thy Friendship!

I had an amazing time at Ohio State- I think attending an enormous university allowed me to develop social and leadership skills that I wouldn't have been able to build in a smaller program. More importantly, Ohio State's in-state tuition, along with many generous scholarships funded by donors, allowed me to patch together a series of 14 scholarships that funded my undergraduate education. I wouldn't have been able to attend college without these scholarships, and am thankful to this day for all... Read More the opportunities provided.

My experience at Ohio State made me the ambitious, goal oriented and eager person I am to help other students looking to enter their undergraduate program. The Ohio Stat University main campus is daunting, the campus is huge, but the family is so welcoming. Once your major is decided your campus becomes smaller, your family becomes more intimate and you have access to any supports you may need. Ohio State will forever be a home to me and I will be forever grateful to my years spent there. Go bucks!... Read More
