Ohio State is a university that prides itself on its football team and not much else. Athletics completely overshadow academics here. The professors here don't care about the undergrads and most of the TA's don't speak English. The social scene consists of people getting ****faced and talking about Buckeyes football and what sports they played at their high school in some podunk Ohio town. There are some East Coasters here who were too dumb to get into the other big 10 schools, so they came here for the football and the drinking. The kids in the honors college are bright, but definitely aren't the norm on campus. A lot of the academic buildings are falling apart, while the sports facilities seem to be constantly getting renovated.

I'm from the West Coast and people from my home state laugh when they hear that I go to OSU. I have a pretty nice sized scholarship here, so it really shows how I much I hate this school that I would want to leave so much money on the table.

I find the rivalry between OSU and Michigan to be rather humorous because the academics here pale in comparison to Michigan. Michigan is an elite public school with a great reputation worldwide. Also, Ann Arbor puts Columbus to shame.

There are some decent graduate programs at OSU, but the undergrad education and reputation of the school is horrendous outside of the state of Ohio, so don't plan on coming here unless you want to live in Ohio for the rest of your life.

Fortunately, I'm just about done with my last term here and I'll be transferring out in the fall.

     
Responses
responseOutside of your wholly biased review of the university, it would at least do you well to not undermine your entire argument by feigning for a moment that Ann Arbor as a city can compare to Columbus. I'd also like to point out the irony in listing the student body as "arrogant" when you come off as nothing more.
commentI have to agree with this review completely. I transferred out of OSU two years ago and couldn't be happier with my decision.

To the response-I'm not sure how you can argue that Ann Arbor isn't better than Columbus. C-bus is full of very ignorant and uneducated people, while AA is a very intellectual college town that is quite cultured. AA is safe, exciting, and scenic. OSU has a long ways to go before it can be considered a top tier public school.

responseYOU SOUND LIKE A LONER WHO HAD NO FRIENDS. THE OHIO STATE UNIVERSIY IS FOR SMART SOCIAL PEOPLE. JUST BECAUSE YOU DIDNT FIT DOESNT MEAN ITS NOT A GREAT SCHOOL. YOU ARE AN IDIOT MICHIGAN SUCKS. NO TRUE TOSU WOULD COMPLEMENT MICHIGAN.

GOOOO BUCKEYES!!!

responseI have to agree 100% with the second response. The person who wrote this review could not be more incorrect. Also, who cares if AA is senic?? I'd rather be in columbus every day with my fellow buckeyes who support and love each other no matter what than in "senic" AA. Ann Arbor is a whore and Michigan sucks :) go bucks and go osu!!!!!!!
