Many Excellent Options
The meal plans and dining options at Ohio State are fantastic. Our meal plans consist of swipes. We have a card with our chosen amount of swipes and extra money that allow it to be used as a debit card as well. One swipe can get you a meal at any of the dining facilities, which include cafe style, buffet style, restaurant and fast food style. All of the food is freshly prepared and have many healthy options. Every dining area offers different options. The options can get old sometimes, however, if you are stuck on one side of campus and the weather is too bad to walk to the other side for different options. There are also grocery store type places that swipes can be used to buy groceries, like drinks, fruit, bread, cereal, etc. Overall, the dining options at Ohio State are very satisfying.

It's Ohio Weather--Changes Often!
Ohio weather can never make up it's mind. One minute the sun will be out, the next it is hailing! On rainy days a rain coat, rain boots & umbrella are needed but wind can be so strong your umbrella may prove useless! In winter quarter, it was sunny and warm for the first two weeks then we got slammed with icy snow! Snow and wind are the worst, but luckily classes and dining areas are close so it is not too unbearable!

So Many Options, So Little Time!
Academically, Ohio State offers many major and minor options to choose from, including a fantastic exploration program which sets undecided students up to work closely with advisors to explore all majors and decide which would be best for them! Ohio State also has multiple libraries that are open very late on weekdays and some 24/7. They also offer free tutors and learning centers available to all students whenever they need.
Students also have access to a health clinic on campus and have 10 free sessions with a university psychologist if ever needed. There is an excellent campus bus system that can take students anywhere on campus and anywhere in Columbus. There is a never a bored moment for a student who understands the bus system and can get to any club, party, museum and restaurant in Columbus. Students can also be highly involved with campus group or spend their time at the on campus recreational facilities working out, playing intramural sports, or joining a group fitness class!
The most exciting and unique thing about Ohio State comes in autumn quarter: football! Yes, most schools have football, but at Ohio State football games spread an amazing sense of joy and pride throughout the entire campus. On game days, the entire campus is flooded with our school colors from students, alumni, and just plain old fans who come from all over to experience the amazing thrill of being at an Ohio State football game!
