Oregon State University Top Questions

The thing that makes OSU unique is that, even though we have a large campus with hundreds of buildings, everything is easy to find. Most of the classroom buildings are on Campus Way and Jefferson Way. The rest of campus has the typical dorms, dining centers, administrative buildings, and more, but OSU also has large areas of fields and trees, which I feel makes the difference. It gives students a place to hang out, play games, and more!

OSU will finally be smoke free on September 1st!!! I cannot wait. I have no idea if that is unique to only a few colleges but it is something I am so excited about!

I think the best part of Oregon State University is how easy it is to get involved, we have numerous clubs, sports and student body governments.

I would consider dedication the best thing about Oregon State. Everyone here is dedicated, from the professors to the teacher's assistants and even the students, or at least the majority of students. They are dedicated not just to the University but to learning more, to teaching more, to increasing their knowledge and preparing young adults for a strong career in the future. All of the teachers I have had have not only cared about what they are teaching and known the subject well, but made themselves available for help even in very large classes. I appreciate that very much.

OSU's campus is unique for a lot of reasons. I would say what makes it very unique is the huge, very old, trees on it, as well as the classic style buildings which all match one another. It's such a beautiful campus and there are so many resources on campus that make it not only aesthetically pleasing, but also incredibly unique because it houses so many options that serve any interest groups.

The community at Oregon State University is outstanding, everyone is so friendly and helpful. You will have no problems meeting new people, friends, and making great memories.

Oregon State University's student body is very diverse. Differences are generally respected and embraced.

I feel that the quality of the professors and the makeup of the student body are my schools best qualities.

I really like the enthusiastic response the professors have about teaching. I have heard of schools where the professors are just teaching because they are required to not because they want to, but I have never come across that at OSU. Most of the professors show up happy to be there that day and very knowledgable about what they are supposed to be teaching about.

Our school is extremely friendsly with an absolutely beautiful campus, but our student services are fantastic. A state of the art gym, psychological services, craft center, cultural centers, computing centers, wi fi all over campus, and numerous health services, all for free. There are also other services in various departments for reduced prices for students.
