What do you brag about most when you tell your friends about University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh?

Sasha

I live in Chippewa and almost everyone from my class went to schools that are close to home and that was never what I wanted to do so I find myself talking a lot about how good of a choice it was for me to move away for school. I also love my school because I met really great people and all of the staff that I have had are very helpful! I love the school spirit too, makes the transition so much easier.

Jesse

The UWO Football team as well as different clubs, organizations, and opportunities.

Michael

For a mid to upper middle sized univerisity, there is no school with a better social scene than Oshkosh. There is always something going on whether its organized by the campus or ahh lets call them social events. Everyone at Oshkosh is very inclusive and generally just wants to have a good time. Its such a great place to meet great friends and connect with people that are like you and totally different from you.

The best part about UW-Oshkosh is the campus community. The faculty and students truly care about their peers and this makes the campus a very accepting and comforting place to be. I was a transfer student and within weeks I was able to say I felt like I was at home. Oshkosh is a perfect, safe location and always has something going on to keep you entertained.

When I talk to my friends about my school I always talk about how many activities, and opportunities there are here. With everyone being friendly, there is no doubt that you won't be having fun on this campus with all of the activities going on here.

When I talk to my friends about my school I tend to brag about the success of our sports teams. Even though we are a D3 school, out teams work just as hard, if not harder, than the higher division schools.

UW-Oshkosh is amazing, the people here are so friendly, and don't judge you. The teachers try to make sure you succeed, and there are so many people here to help make sure you complete your goals and dreams. I love how the campus is set up, it's so easy to find classes. UW-Oshkosh also always has events lined up to keep students happy and busy. They also have a great variety of food for meal times!

When I talk to my friends about UWO, I tell them it is a great school to go and the campus is always having something going on so you will never get bored. When you get hungry, there are food places right on campus that you can go to. Overall UWO is an awesome place to go to school.

Farther away from home! Many of my friends went to UW-Platteville which is only about 30 minutes away from where we are from. Being at Oshkosh has allowed me to grow up and become more responsible. I am practically living on my own. I can only go home once a month, if I'm lucky. I have a job up here and it allows me to explore different cultures than my small hometown.

Sam

Everything is just a couple minutes walk away. Everything you could possibly want (within reason for a broke college student) can be found/bought either on campus, or within walking distance from it. There's several places to eat, and there's Starbuck's locations in several of the academic buildings!
