Ohio State University-Main Campus Top Questions

What's the most frustrating thing about Ohio State University-Main Campus?

Megan

The most frustrating thing about my school is all of the improvements they are working on. Improvements are great, and I am all for betting the college campus. However, construction is everywhere and our once beautiful campus is now a mess. It's hard to enjoy it when the weather is nice. It is also frustrating that they have so much money to build a whole new medical center but do not invest in small things like touching up the dorms where a good majority of freshman and sophomores live.

Sarah

The most frustrating thing about my school is parking and traveling around the school's campus. The parking spots are limited and the campus is huge. It's especially annoying in the winter time when you have to walk 30 minutes to get to your first class let alone spending about half of that time trying to find a place to park. I suggest riding the bus!

I find that I am most frustrated by the lack of interaction between colleges. I am an Industrial Design major with a Fine Arts minor, and I feel that it would be beneficial to work together on projects with the business or engineering college. There are a few classes and opportunities available that bring the separate colleges together, but they are not usually advertised very well. Being in such a large successful university includes many separate high-ranking disciplines. I feel there is a sort of arrogance between them, when great things could happen if they worked together.

Kaitlyn

The most frusterating thing about OSU is that there is so much to do and see and not enough time to do it. It is such a beautiful school and I wish that I could experience every aspect of it, and all the different types of classes they offer. Another frusterating thing that is going on right now is just the construction going on campus. It is loud and at times makes it hard to get to class, but nothing to hard to handle!

Many people are overwhelmed by Ohio State's size. Outside of academics and sports, there are over 600 different student organizations that range from cooking to video gaming. Ohio State University is located in the middle of Columbus. This allows students to experience the big city feel but is not overpowering. The best way to think about Ohio State's size is by remembering you can never make a small school big, but you can make a big school small by making it your own, by making it your home. Ohio State University is my new home.

Erin

The most fustrating thing about UNC, is that it smells really bad because of the meat plant. Most days, I step outside and the smell is just overwhelming. They say you get used it, so I am hoping for the best.

Logan

The off-campus housing can be frustrating because it negatively reflects on the school itself; it is expensive and not as nice as I would have expected.

Alexis

The most frustrating thing about my school is when assignments in my classes are a lot less points than I personally think they should be worth. For example, in my current psychology class, we just had a midterm worth only 25 points. On the midterm, there were 14 questions that required answers of at least three sentences each. I spent multiple hours studying and knew all of the answers, but it was frustrating knowing that my hard work and time would only earn me 25 points at the most. This is what frustrates me most about the Ohio Sate University.

Kelly

I absolutely love going to school here but the most frustrating thing about The Ohio State University is paying the tuition. The school is so expensive so I struggle to pay my school fees which leaves me with no money left over for food or other bills. If I can't find a way to pay for school I will have to transfer somewhere else I can afford. I do not want to result in transferring. This school really inspires me to a better person and help others become what they want to be.

Prerequisite classes for math and science are incredibly large and intimidating. Having one of the largest student populations means that general courses are inherently larger. This makes it more difficult to understand the material and learn from the professor. The worst culprit in this field is Chemistry. The teachers are difficult to understand and offer almost zero extra help. This makes it difficult to pass the class.
