Ohio State University-Main Campus Top Questions

What's the one thing you wish someone had told you about freshman year?

Madeline

I wish I would have known how important it is to get involved from the very beginning.

Daniel

I think that I had a very good understanding of what campus and academic life would be like on this campus. I had previously spent time at Ohio State University working with various professors through a 4-H program, so really felt this was a great place to learn and meet people.

Leslie

I wish I would have known hw much I was going to love it on main campus. And I wish I would have known how to study and prepare for classes more.

Emily

I wish I would have known more about possible scholarships, and I wish I would have taken more post secondary classes in high school.

Jessika

The classes are more than 500 people. :(

Tiffany

I wish I would have known that attending such a great university would be a lot more hard work than I expected. I wish I would have been informed that the classes are a lot harder than at many other universities.

Max

I wish I had known that Ohio State does not have a film school, or a very prestigious media department.

Michael

I wish I would have known that students have a tremendous opportunity to balance their social and academic lives.

Jacob

I wish I had known more about the curriculum before I came to The Ohio State University. I had originally started in a Pharmacy program, and switched over to Mechanical Engineering. However, when I made this switch, my counselor did not recommend I take the correct classes, and as a result, I will be graduating a year late.

Matthew

Nothing really, it was easy to fit in right away, plus the orientation was helpful.
