I really enjoyed my time at OSU. It's a small town, small campus vibe but still offered greek participation and had a really great art program. The campus feels safe, and my on-campus apartment was really nice. There were lots of dining options and getting involved on campus is really easy if you have time. My particular degree program was really intensive - only about half of the applicants are accepted during a sophomore year review. Time wise it was also really intense. I don't regret it though!...

It’s a good school but the whole time I was there I felt like an outsider. I had never felt so alone and scared in my life. I was in the FIT program spring semester my freshman year. Totally useless program. None of the other students in the program would even talk to me. I had a slob of a roommate who leave their clothes on the bathroom floor and their drinks piled up on the dresser in the small hallway we shared. Because they would never throw away their drinks we ended up getting gnats. I was... Read More so glad when I finally went home at the end of the semester.

Oklahoma State University provided me with a quality education and introduction to the field of philosophy. The philosophy department is diverse and staffed with excellent professors that take every measure to promote and share their love of philosophy. It is here that I was first formally introduced to the field, which proved to be a formative experience, as I am now a graduate student studying philosophy. The university provided me not only scholarship opportunities and financial assistance, but...

The people in the department and the university at large are friendly and welcoming, but also willing to push students to achieve their goals and reach their potential.

Ive only been to one university, but my experience at Oklahoma State has been a spectacular and game-changing experience. From the many knowledgeable, helpful professors to the cleanliness of campus to the safety that the security provides to minimize crime incidents. OSU has been an experience of not only the growth in knowledge but a growth in independence as young adults. The majority of the staff is informative and polite, this is especially important when you are a freshman or in my case, a... Read More transfer trying to get used to college life and literally trying to find direction (getting from class to class, etc.). The campus also currently is growing in infrastructure as many new buildings are being formed, allowing the ever growing number of students to have smaller class sizes. Having smaller class sizes, especially in college, is always a good thing, because it allows more one on one interaction with student and the professor. Not the mention, the plethora of already many recently built building OSU has to provide and having many new, more technologically advanced classrooms also helps improve the college experience when striving to get great grades. As students juggling educational, work and other affairs it is important to simplify as much as a possible and with many mandatory advisors, who professors themselves. Their expertise helps guide students on the route for them according to how they have performed and they also advise the students on what they need to perform to reach their desired goals. College life at OSU has been a blast, and I am looking forward to the next four years at the OSU Veterinary School.

Attending Oklahoma State University was one of my best life decisions! I was an out of state student, and did not come from a traditional agricultural background, and they made me feel right at home. I loved how their animal science program was very hands on, and that is something that initially attracted me to the school. The professors are great and very knowledgeable, and they do not make you feel as though you are just a number. I chose to pursue an option in production, and what I enjoyed the... Read More most about it was the fact that I was exposed to all sides of the agricultural industry. I learned about many aspects regarding the livestock industry, as well as plant and crop production, in addition, to some of the business side of things. I was very involved on campus, and they really have a lot to offer. I have made many great connections, which I know will help me immensely in the future.

Oklahoma State University has an incredible Civil Engineering department. The professors are very approachable outside of the classroom, and are very informative inside the classroom. They always make time for their students and will do whatever it takes to help them excel in life. The professors in the department are very busy with their projects, and are constantly looking for new opportunities. They pride themselves on creating new opportunities for students through the funding they obtain through... Read More their projects. Over the years that I spent at Oklahoma State I was able to easily develop friendships with the professors and it made my program even more impactful. I wanted to exceed for myself and make my family proud, however I also wanted to help the professors accomplish their projects and share in their successes. Being a part of the program their is much more than just being a name on a piece of paper. In your time their you can easily develop yourself academically, and you will become part of a new family.

It is important as an undergrad to ensure that you are pushing yourself with your course schedules. As a vet student now, I appreciated how easy it was to personalize my curriculum and found that the rigors of the coursework are definitely major-dependent. If you don't plan to pursue graduate work after school, a high volume high difficulty path is not necessary, but for both my brother and I, we had to carefully evaluate what courses would prepare us for architectural engineering professional school...

I had many fantastic science teachers who I would do research for without hesitation but a few other that simply didn't care much for the course they were teaching. Without a doubt, the best courses you will ever have are the ones taught by passionate and enthusiastic lifelong learners. They are not lacking at OSU!
