Ole Miss is actually experiencing tremendous growth in student population right now, and the majority of it is coming from out of state. In fact, the past two freshman classes have had more out-of-state students than in-state students. I am a sophomore here from Mississippi, but I have several friends who are from all over the US. As you described, the culture in the South and specifically Mississippi is very different, but different in a good way. People here are the nicest, most polite people you will find anywhere (we are even known as the “Hospitality State”). Because people are so welcoming and kind, it makes it very easy for students from all over the world to fit in well here. Let me know if you and your daughter have any specific questions about Ole Miss student life!
