Ohio State University-Main Campus Top Questions

It is extremely large and can take a while to get to classes, particularly annoying in the snow or rain. However, the people make it all worth it.

The worst thing about campus is it can be so big that you only hear of certain extra curricular events or never at all. Another is you have so much classes or homework to take its difficult to get involved in these events . I would also comment that the financial aid or tuition can be quite expensive to students.

The worst thing about OSU is how long it takes to walk from one end of the campus to the other. It can take me up to a half-hour to walk to some of my classes.

The off campus crimes

I consider the worst thing about Ohio State University to be the surrounding areas. Walking off-campus at night-time or during the weekends can be very dangerous, and due to the size of Ohio State, Campus Safety Services can only do so much to protect the students. There have been times where I feel really scared (for my saftey) living off-campus.

It is so expensive, I am in danger of being kicked out because I don't know if I can afford to pay my tuition.

I can't really say that there is a bad thing about my school. I love every second I spend on campus, and I love all that the school offers. I wouldn't be able to say one bad thing about this school in my own personal experience while being here. This school has made me a better person, and has changed my life forever.

The worst thing about OSU is the fact that things aren't given to you, like clubs. You need to be proactive and find clubs that you like, classes you want to take, and events you want to attend. They aren't pushed on you.

Once again, I will explain what is causing the greatest trepidation at my decision to attend Ohio State University. I have always lived a small life, attended private elementary and high schools, and had a small number of close friends. Ohio State University is huge. I am fearful for the typical activities of college age students, such as drinking, smoking and partying. I do not want to participate in these activities, and would rather not be exposed to them on a regular basis. Unfortunately, that is exactly what I expect at Ohio State University.

Dakota State University does not provide alot of activites for their students. Myself, I stay on campus on the weekends and DSU is located in small town and there is not to much to do here. It can get boring on the weekends because there is not alot to do. They do provide something at least once a week, but its usually durning the week and not on the weekends when people have their spare time and can participate in the things provided for us. DSU could bring more activities to campus for those that stay here on the weekends.

The worst thing about my school is the party environment, if you consider that a worst thing. It can be hard to stay focused on my studies with all the fun and celebration associated with the buckeyes. Celebrations on campus can reach up to one hundred to two hundred people at times. With moderation, one can have one of the greatest experiences at The Ohio State University!

The freshman dorms on South Campus are in poor shape. They are in the process of remodeling and tearing them down, but students are still living in them as the last year.

Security

It is too focused on athletics. I feel education should be the main focal point of any school at any level and not any form of athletics. There is far too much emphasis placed on athletics at every educational level and students and parents alike get their priorities screwed up.

Financial Aid Assistance. It can be a hassle to receive your aid on time. Sometimes it takes too long to receive your package. By the time you get it, the school year is approaching and I wont have enough to pay for Housing since i live off campus.

Ohio State does not have many flaws in my eyes. To me OSU is the best school around, but the worst thing about my school is the size of the dorms. The size of them are relatively small and some have no air conditioning. Though the rooms are small, they are managable. I live with two other roommates in one room and size is tight, but we manage to make the best of it. My advice would be to not bring everything, but if you find to have more room, you can always bring more from home.

I think the worst thing about Ohio State is the lack of financial aid. Some that attend this school do not receive any scholarships or grants that they need. I think it would be helpful if they helped those who do not qualify for certain financial aid, the opportunity to find other ways of paying for school without going into debt.

I would have to say the class size. Although this has never been an issue for me, I could see how it could be discouraging to students who prefer one-on-one attention.

The worst thing about Ohio State, well it's hard to think of one. All the students are die hard Ohio State fans and adore their school, if there's one thing wrong with it. it might be the size. Only having twleve minutes to try and trek from west campus to north is hard! Although there are buses, I always seem to be that person running with their huge backpack towards them in hopes I catch it without looking like too much of a fool.

The thing that I consider to be the worst aspect about Ohio State is it's large size. While this can be great because it gives several opportunities to many students, it also creates a wall between the students and professors. Relationships are not often built between the teachers and the students, often turning the student into a number in the gradebook. However, the professors and staff at OSU encourage their students to build the one on one connections that are extremely useful for excelling in the class.
