Best public bang forBiology
Best public bang for your buck in the State of Ohio. Great inside and outside of the classroom if you can handle the construction!

Question
I was extremely disappointed with this University.Quite BrightPsychology
I was extremely disappointed with this University. I was sold a bill of goods upon entering, only to find that the education was far too overpriced for what you got in return. I had a teacher literally disappear on us... Even the campus staff was baffled to why she wasn't showing up, until three days later she decided to tell us she was quitting. The faculty lied to me about what to expect extracurricular wise from my classes, when I CLEARLY explained that I had a job and, was a long distance commuter, and could only do work during class time (Obviously, with the exception of studying.) The coursework was basically spoon fed to us, and the students had a very entitled and elitist attitude. Don't get me wrong, there were some teachers who were actually REALLY good at what they did, and there were a handful of great students... one of which said he regretted his choice of attending ODU, but was over $60000 in debt to them, and felt trapped there, which is why I got out as quickly as I entered! Obviously the choice of where you attend it ultimately yours, but I would stick with a public university route... you may even consider going to a community college first.

Question
Ohio State provided me with an excellent education,Accounting
Ohio State provided me with an excellent education, real world experience in an internship, and all the great experiences that come from attending a major university with a vibrant campus life. The students and faculty have tremendous school spirit and the atmosphere is among the friendliest of any campus I have visited. Yes, the school is big and you have to be independent, but the students are bright yet down to earth and I can't imagine going anywhere else. Go bucks!
