What's unique about your campus?

Ryan

Going home after classes.

Leah

The best thing about my school is its ability to appeal to anyone. This can be a campus where you see ten people you know walking to class, or you can be just a face in the crowd if you want. There are just so many people with so many different interests that you can truly find your niche here.

Lisa

The education I recieved from my professors. They were down to earth and gave great everyday career oriented advice.

Kate

Some of the best things about Ohio State cannot be described. There is a true spirit to being a Buckeye that students at any other school will never experience. There are no places in the world that compare to the Oval on central campus in the springtime or the Mirror Lake Jump the weekend before the Michigan game. No other student can imagine the endless possibilities with a professional degree from a prestigious school like Ohio State. The best thing about Ohio State is actually being here and experiencing what is known to be "The Buckeye Tradition".

The best part about Ohio State is that everybody wants you to do well in school. If you really have the desire to learn and succeed then there is no stopping you.

Football season, it brings out the real true fans at Ohio State.

Alexandra

The teachers. The teachers genuinely care about the students and are flexible enough to go out of their way to help the students do their very best.

Christine

The best thing about The Ohio State University is the exciting opportunities that are available each quarter. Fall quarter provides the excitement of football games, intramural sports, clubs and meeting new people. Winter quarter provides basketball games, hockey games, intramural sports and ski club activities. When Spring quarter comes around you can find students out on the oval hanging out with friends, playing frisbee and football, or reading and studying. Summer quarter is enjoyable because usually the class load is nonexistent or considerably lighter and you spend most of your time working and being with friends.

The school spirit at OSU is second to none. It's wonderful to be among people so proud of their school.

Ohio State is a school full of excitment, spirit, and opportunities. The passion for the school and hospitality from students and teachers towards others is contageous. The best thing about the school is the fact that even if you are not born a buckeye fan, once you attend OSU you will be one. It is a welcoming campus with a very diverse student body.

Charles

Shcool spirit, and there is always something to do on campus.

Tradition. Tradition is te best thing about OSU because it keeps the spirit alive no matter what. Tradition makes everyone come together in celebration or in mourning. Tradition makes OSU a family.

Kathryn

The study abroad programs are abundant.

Richard

Ohio State was a great place to learn how to socialize. Off campus parties were rampant and people were always extremely excited about partying. I came in to school quiet and shy and came out being able to talk to anyone. That was by far my greatest acomplishment in college and i couldn't have done it without OSU.

Cerra

I think the best thing about my school is the school spirit. especially toward the football and basketball teams!

Daniel

It is very big and there is lots to do. The professors are usually great people. There is a lote of culltural diversity on OSU. Ohio State has very nice facilities and a well-run transit system for commuting students.

John

The alumni support is fantastic. They will not only donate money, but their time as well. Many will come back to campus and give industry related discussions, attend career fairs, etc. It feels nice to have outside support.

Dorothy

Our school has a strong sense of unity. There is trust from the student body with the leaders of the univerisity. If the leadership chooses a certain direction, the staff and student body follow wholeheartedly.

Abbey

I love the large size because it comes with so many amazing opportunities. There is something for everyone at OHio State. It's pretty much the best place on earth and I wouldn't change my experiences there for anything in the world!

Yvonne

there is really a lot of opportunity for students no matter what they are looking for.

Michelle

The diversity here in terms of people, things to do and opportunities is probably the best things about my school. If you're willing to try new things and venture out a bit you will never be left with a lack of things to do. There is a club/organization for just about everything you can ever imagine here so it's very easy to find you niche.

Tom

The opportunities, from jobs to social events to friendships. I can't imagine getting anything more out of my college experience.

Tiffany

The atmosphere and the vibe of the people. The school is just plain great. Having a good atmosphere, I think, makes having to go to class a lot better than going to a dull, boring school.

Benjamin

The best thing about my school is the number of opportunities. I originally came here as an engineering student, and was proud to be at one of the best engineering schools in the nation. I recently switched my major to Arabic, and am once again proud to be part of a top-ranked program. This is the only school in Ohio that even offers Arabic as a major, and there are only a handful of schools in this nation that offer it.

Cory

The best thing about Ohio State is the atmosphere. Whether it be a sporting event where we have a massive suppost for or just in genera;, Ohio State is a freiendly college atmosphere with great support avenues.

Kayla

They really know what students want. While the financial aid for out-of-staters leaves much to be desired, if you can afford to go here, everything else is butter. The housing is easy, accessable, and really nice. The meal plans are simple, with a big variety, and more useful than any other school I've seen (which is a lot). The availability of things you can accomplish with your student ID is vast, and it makes it easy to live and get around the city, and, most importabtly, have fun.

Megan

The best thing about OSU is the community spirit. There is nothing more exciting than the overwhelming feeling love for the school on a Saturday afternoon in fall on campus. We love this school. There is no place I would rather be. Brown University was my first choice. I would have missed so much going there. This is where I belong.

Maggie

It's huge, anyone can do anything!

Kristen

The best thing about The Ohio State University-Main Campus is that the campus is like a city within a city. Attending here is like having your own city inside of Columbus. There is an immense sense of belonging due to all of the choices available for a students social and academic life. Ohio State is the best choice for anyone wanting a degree that will impress employers and land them the life they truly want.

Alyssa

The feeling of school unity and spirit is fantastic. It's great knowing that everyone is at the school because they genuinely enjoy what it is and what is stands for. There is a strong sense of tradition here.

Emily

I love the large, busy campus because there are always tons of people around and plenty of stuff to do. Also, I feel like I'm really learning there, even in my general courses, not just wasting my money. I'm learning useful information, not just facts that I won't use.

Colton

The spirit and enthusiasm that every student who attends Ohio State has for it. Nothing can even begin to describe how truly awesome and diverse the students are and how our University somehow manages to bring all of those people together and unite them.

Brian

I think the legacy that you become a part of. You are given the opportunity to walk the same halls as did some rather large social, and political stars. You also recieve a first rate education with the opportunity to easily be placed with an alumni's company etc. It is an amazing and life changing experience that I recommend to anyone with a strong sense of tradition and pride.

Martin

Some of the teachers are just extremely helpful and interested in teaching.

RJ

always meeting new people

Greg

I would consider the variety of people, places and information the best quality of Ohio State. The community is so large and well-funded that we are made privy to vast resources: various computer labs, libraries, recreational centers, experienced faculty, diverse cultures and beliefs, as well as local restaurants, theaters, concerts, stores. Anything you want to do, see or learn can be found at Ohio State.

Katie

There is always so much to do. Each quarter I can meet many new people in all of my classes. The school is big enough for that to happen, but the campus is just the right size for me to run into people I know on campus daily.

Shannon

The students. Everyone is great and you'll make friends for life.
