Overall ExperienceWhat's This?

There is a reason the Buckeye Nation is considered to be so devoted; an overwhelming love for OSU is evident in student responses, and in the loyalty of alumni to their alma mater. Each person has his or her own reasons for loving the University, and there are quite a few of them. Some students feel that the academics are top-notch and have found exactly the programs they wanted; others lean toward the athletic success of the Buckeye teams, while some just feel that the friendships and bonds they have made are enough to make their tenure at OSU worthwhile. At any rate, everyone can agree that being a Buckeye creates a special bond between you and nearly 50,000 other students, which you will carry with you for the rest of your life.

Once you get past the sheer size of the University, it will really become a second home. After only a quarter of classes, you won’t be able to cross the Oval without seeing someone you know. Ohio State is truly the smallest large university you will find. The people are known for their friendly attitudes, and alumni are scattered across the nation. If you choose to go to OSU, you’re choosing a school with a name that’s well known, both in the workplace and in the college community. Few students ever regret their time at Ohio State, and most consider their college experience to be among the best offered in the Big Ten and the country.

Diversity at Ohio State University

Diversity Problems

My biggest problem with Ohio State is its lack of ethnic/racial diversity. Many native Ohio students view the university as very diverse, but I have to disagree. The university seems almost all white to me, and the outreach towards minority groups is almost inexistant. There is some racial tension between the races, sometimes, especially considering recent events on campus, which is something that students are working towards solving but have a far way to go.

Greek Life at Ohio State University

Greek life at OSU has never been a historically large part of the social scene because there are so many other things to do - imagine 30% of 40,000 undergraduates as Greeks! There are so many other opportunities to be a part of a group that many students don't feel the need to join Greek life - however, those that do seem to love it. The classes have been expanding lately as the Greek community reaches out to the rest of the school.

Psychology/ Criminology.

I am a third year double major in criminology and psychology, I LOVE IT. The sociology department has very knowledgeable staff, as well as the psychology department. All of the professors I have come across love to help students and really have a passion for what they are doing. If I could do it all again, I would definitely pick OSU for my pre-law study!
