OU is known as a party school but it is a good place to get a good education too. Class size is OK. The school is not know as apowerhouse in sports and that gives a person interested in playing a good chance to be on a team. If you have a radical agenda this may not be the scool for you. Things are pretty calm on campus. Nearly everyone is in the same boat here and that makes it easy for a shy person to form relationships with classmates.

You have to be driven! There are many distractions on campus but as long as you prioritize your life you'll be fine. I've heard many people call Ohio University one of the happiest places on earth. I would definitely agree with that. Everyone is here to have a good time and make the most out of their college experience. The campus is supposed to be haunted as you may hear from the many stories but it just makes Halloween even more fun here!

People who struggled in high school but are intelligent and responsible beyond that level can do well there. Those who thrive in a small town setting with high tech access to the world will find this University very welcoming. You must have the mental fortitude to keep your focus on your work.

As advice to prospective students looking at Ohio University, I would say it's an excellent school for those who are looking for a true experience, different from what you would find at other univerities. People who enjoy a laid back and accepting environment would love Athens. There's really something for every kind of person here at OU!

Ohio University is an extremely pleasant place to live and go to school. Individuals here are extremely helpful and nice. There is plently to do at Ohio University aside from classes, and it is important to stay focused on schoolwork and make that your first priority. Ohio University is a positive, fun-loving environment. The faculty and staff make you want to succeed. I have been given many opportunities to excell in my major, education, here and I would encourage any new students to find a major that they love and stick with it.
