It is the largest single campus in the US! It's huge, has a lot of research opportunities, and is absolutely gorgeous. The view from the 11th floor study in the library is breathtaking.

To start off, the campus is extremely diverse. Kids that go to my universities feel at home when they attend school. There's no one dominant race, and everyone gets along like a family. The school's academic programs are one of the best due to it's scholarly reputation.

The thing that is so unique about Ohio State is its plethora of opportunities. It has many school groups, majors, clubs, etc that students can enroll in. Its size is also memorable, with over 50,000 students. It's a beautiful campus with grass, trees, and amazing structures. It is known for its diversity and large variety of students from everywhere thinkable. For example, I am friends with girls from Croatia, Israel, Spain, and Belgium. It's so nice to meet lots of different types of people.

The size. Ohio State is a massive place, and no matter where you go you'll always see something new and exciting. The diversity of this place is spectacular, and I know that compared to other schools the variety of activities is considerable. The campus is also known for having events that bring a large body of people together, especially home and away football games.
Morgan
The fact that this school is so big, but feels so small. I love that you can walk across the oval and see people you know, and not feel overwhelmed by the amount of people. It was also a lot more comfortable and well layed out compared to others visited. The people were all friendly and considerate as well.
Cory
The amount of people that attend the school and the fact that there is a major or cliche for any one person that chooses to come here. The city is big enough to make a name for yourself or hide within the crowd.
Emily
The school spirit is extremely strong and creates a bond between the students.
Kathleen
The students and teachers at OSU come from many different cultures, religions, and ethnic backgrounds. Class sizes at OSU are also very big compared to other universities.

School Spirit! Go Bucks!
Erica
This school is accepting of all cultures. This school demands you be accepting of all cultures as well. This school teaches all aspects of a subject not just the aspects that are most popular (for example evolution and creationism). This school has something for everyone - volunteer groups, religious groups, choirs, dance teams, sports. This school is large but well respected. There is an unbelievable amount of school pride here. This school requires students to be educated in various subjects in addition to chosen major topics.

The Ohio State University is very unique with their determiantion to make a very qualified individual in the area of study in which they have chosen. Additionaly they have a great campus life style with many places to study and relax with friends. The Ohio State University promotes studying with friends and meeting new people to further enjoy your college experience. Lastyly, the sports are amazing, especially the football team. The thrill of being a part of the tradition that the football team carries is very gradifying.

I am majoring in Agricultural Education. I wanted to go to a college in Ohio. Ohio State is one of two colleges in the state of Ohio that offers Agricultural Education as a major. I really like the quality of instruction at Ohio State and thought it would be a good school to prepare me to be an agricultural education teacher.
Rebekah
Very flexible environment. Near in location to many employment opportunities. Great campus atmosphere.
Serena
The Ohio State University is obviously much bigger than any other school I was considering. It is definitely a larger campus than other colleges, but once you are here and you know where everything is, it really is not overwhelming or anything! The main thing about Ohio State is the academic program and the great career connections that is has for graduates. The fact that it is so big allows for more opportunities to meet someone, who knows someone, who can help you get a job once you are done with school!
Allie
Although Ohio State is a huge school (one of the biggest in the nation) and it seems daunting, there are actually a lot of benefits from going to a school this big. No matter what you want to get involved in or learn about, there is an opportunity to do so. There are nearly 1000 clubs and organizations here. OSU has around 30 different foreign languages to take. There are just so many opportunities here that many other, smaller schools don't and can't have.
Andrew
Ohio State seemed to have more opprotunities when it came to a variety of majors and classes. With all of those different opprotunites, one can really shape his class schedule to his own liking. I am glad that along with a variety of challenging courses that help prepare me for a future career, there is also a wide range of options to choose from when it comes to classes that I want to take just out of a casual interest.
Jilian
It's much bigger. I'm a music major and the school of music at Ohio State is fairly small. I really appreciate the tiny music environment where I know everyone and have very small classes in the middle of a huge state university setting.
Natasha
Ohio State is unique in the variety of education and carreer paths it offers to students. It is constantly developing and evolving everday.
Barbara
The Ohio State University (OSU) is HUGE! The sheer size of the campus, the number of students and faculty, and the amount of resources available makes it so unique. You can do anything you want here - everything from cutting edge medical research to theatre performances The multitude of opportunities means students are free to get involved, make new friends, and try anything that interests them. Want to change your major? Chances are good that OSU offers a degree in anything you want. Despite the size, the students and alumni are a strong community and our school spirit is incredibly high!
