Ohio State University-Main Campus Top Questions

The financial process and award packaging is the most frustrating. Being that there are so many students at my school, it can be difficult to recieve assistance from a financial counselor. It is also hard to get all of the funding that you need. Loans can be tricky and have expensive interest rates. With tuition going up every year, financial assistance can become overwhelming.

I pondered this question relentlessly. Ohio State has irksome aspects of which I can rant: the strict parking, the political correctness, and the seemingly wasted money. Sure, these can be frustrating, but not for me. What truly frustrates me is personal, so much so that I considered not mentioning it. However, if I am to offer my advice, well, advice is personal. OSU lies 150 miles from my hometown, the place where my boyfriend of five years lives. For nine months each year, I hear his voice but don’t see him. For nine months, we change and grow, apart.

The only thing that really gets to me is that sometimes our class sizes are so big that its hard to get that one on one with your teacher.

The most frustrating thing about my school is the academic calendar. Throughout the years, Ohio State has been on quarters, which means that the breaks do not line up with schools on semesters.

The most frustrating thing about The Ohio State University is the tuition I pay as an out of state student.
