Oregon State University Top Questions

I would not attend this school if I were a person looking for small class sizes with a more intimate one on one with professors. Until you get up to the 300 and 400 level classes most of your class sizes are in the 100's. A lot of people find it much harder to learn when put into large auditorium size classes. I would just reccommend to those that are looking for those smaller classes to look elsewhere first.

A person that wants to get a leg up on people at other schools becuase the teachers here are some of the best around and so we are able to get a lot of help from them.

Anyone who is only interested in parties and sun.

I think that for a person who is a little more socially reserved, it might be hard to adjust to OSU. It is a big, friendly campus but I can be extremely overwhelming in size and activity from time to time. Also, much of the campus life involves being social. However, I think OSU is a great school and if a person was looking to succeed and liked a wide variety of scholastic and social activities, it is the place to be.

Really liberal people.

Someone who's looking for a school in a big city or is looking for a huge nightlife. The city where it is located is a college town but there isn't too much shopping or nightclubs. This school is not for someone who doesn't have school spirit.

I would as a person who is interseted in getting a solid education, wants to have fun and also experience the college life.

People who do not have a good idea of what they want to do and don't have the modivation to do it.

People who enjoy nature and are environmentally concerned. Students who are interested in hands on learning.

I would say if you're a liberal arts major, then perhaps this isn't the best school for you. U of O is more into that stuff, here at OSU its really about the sciences and the engineering. On the other hand if you're looking into Greek life, OSU has got a great one, U of O, not so much.
