Those who enjoy positive atmospheres and extensive opportunities, but are able to maintain focus and drive; there are a LOT of distractions on and around this campus. With that said, the benefits far outweigh the potential losses from going out often, avoiding schoolwork, etc. It's easy to do well if you focus mildly and enjoy what you study.
Margaret
People who go to schoool for more than academics. The community is very strong but academics could be stronger.

The kind of person that should attend Ohio University is a diverse student that works hard and has a lot of passion for the school they will be attending. As one of the best jounalism schools in the country, along with rigourous programs such as Business and many Health fields, coming to this unversity definitly requires students to put in a lot of stud time. However this school also is for a person that has a lot of school spirit and that loves meeting new people because this campus is so welcoming to everyone.
Erin
I would say a person that is open minded to the different views that people have to offer. There is a diverse group of pepople that attend this university and having an open mind helps you to connect more with the surrounding students.

Outgoing, hard wroking, generous, helpful, responsible, respectful, and school spirited students are the type of people that would thrive at Ohio Unversity. Because here everyone has each others back, helps when needed, and does not meet a person they do not like. OU is full of diversity, so you as a person has to be open to that diversity and accept it. And most of all you have to have school spirit and love the color green!
Stacy
A person who is motivated and willing to experience new things. There are so many opportunities available you have to be willing to try new things. you also have to be motivation and hard work.
Victoria
Ohio University is the second craziest party school in all of America. Don't be mistaken though; this college can represent all people of my every ethnicity and lifestyle. The general social norm here are the weekends out on the town including the strip of bars and wonderful locally owned restaurants, but there are so many organizations that definitly cater directly to a student's personality and background!
Anna
There is no ideal candidate for OU admissions. If you choose OU you should be fun, laid back, outgoing, friendly, looking to have a good time. However, you should also be smart, driven, ambitious and able to knuckle down because you have to be able to find a balance between your school life and your social life in order to succeed.
