Dayton, OH
University of Dayton

Great college for students who want a good community and campus life. Everything happens on the campus and you meet a lot of people. The academics are good and you have many extracurricular opportunities. Students, faculty and staff are really helpful and friendly. Even though Dayton is not the most exciting city, I would choose University of Dayton again!

The University of Dayton has something for everything. We pride ourselves on our incredible academics, our successful basketball team, and our strong sense of community. The campus is lovely, the people are kind and generous, and the buildings are kept clean and nice. It is a really tight-knit community despite being a relatively large, private university. I love my school!

I really like this University. The people were nice, the atmosphere was great. I felt like I was at home. I feel like I have found a future place here at the university. I can not wait to join the school in the fall and start working towards my degree.

I think the University of Dayton is an amazing place. Not only are the students here ranked some of the happiest in the world, we also are ranked very highly on the academic scale as well. There is a community here that you cannot find on any other campus. The students are extremely friendly and always willing to wait and hold the door for you or offer to buy your lunch if you forgot your ID. Students here are friends with all classes and with all types of people. There are many clubs that are offered which allows you to make connections with those involved in the same interests as you. Furthermore, the professors at this University are some of the kindest and most understanding I have ever met. They truly care about your learning and want you to succeed in their classes. They offer multiple office hours in which you can come in and ask for help, and always are willing to schedule a meeting time with you if needed. They are very passionate about their teaching and truly care for the students well-being as well. There are many things to do both on campus and off of campus for students. The University provides multiple events on campus, such as Christmas on Campus, in which the students can participate. We are located very close to Downtown Dayton which has many shops, restaurants, and events that students can attend on the weekends. Overall, I think the University of Dayton is one of the best college campuses because of the community and academic opportunity they provide for their students and their families.

I absolutely love the University of Dayton and could not be happier with my decision to attend college there! The school provides me with all of the resources necessary to be successful academically. There are so many great professors and also tutoring services available to those who need them. The school is also a lot of fun. There is always something going on every night of the week whether it be on or off-campus. The University of Dayton is also full of great students and people that allow the college life to be enjoyable and beneficial at the same time.

It's a great school that is all about community. Everyone is very welcoming which makes it easy to make friends. You can expect to know at least a couple of people in each class and most professors will know you by name due to the smaller class sizes. You can email most professors if you can't go to their scheduled office hours and they'll set up an extra meeting time for you. Food is good compared to most schools and has a lot of choices. Housing is close to campus and very convenient for classes and campus life.

For as long as I can remember, I have wanted to help better the world around me. Although, I had hopes of attending OSU in the autumn of 2018, I was drawn to the University of Dayton due to the generous amount of financial help offered to me. Ultimately, after spending almost a full academic year at the University of Dayton, I have come to realize that my life decisions should not be driven by financial need, but by passion. The University of Dayton didn't feel like "home," even though I am a Dayton native. People were not the friendliest, professors were mediocre. In comparison to the University of Dayton, I feel as if OSU would provide a more motivating, supportive environment, pushing me to reach my full academic potential, and goals for helping others. English never failed to be my most successful subject in areas including the ACT and CCP courses. My English teachers also found me to be a reliable student who thoroughly understood the material enough to assist them, and explain it to my classmates. My ability to excel in this subject led me to discover a career that I am passionate about and able to execute well. With this, I am confident in successfully preparing myself at The Ohio State University to be a future educator. The Ohio State University, as previously presented, pairs well with my initiative in preparing to help others in my future career. I find my success in helping others, while others may find their biggest successes to be those that primarily benefit themselves. I aspire to add to the supportive, and motivating, environment I believe the university embodies.

I absolutely love the school. The best word to describe it is community which is a compliment and sincere appreciation of the neighborhood that is built on campus. Whenever people ask about my college I do not stop smiling in describing the amazing things UD offers.

I love the University of Dayton! UD was three hours away from home, but made me feel at home everyday that I was there. I recently graduated in December 2018, and being away from UD has been so hard for me. However, I am extremely grateful for the amazing friends that I have made, and the incredible professors that I have made connections with. Go flyers!!

Overall, I am in love with my university. I could not imagine myself going literally anywhere else because it legitimately feels like a second home to me. I am so happy with the people surrounding me not only educationally, but also relationally. The atmosphere is something indescribable and unlike any other college campus. I have yet to meet one person attending or has attended the University of Dayton that does not have only good things to say about it.
