I grew up just north of Columbus and have two children who attend/attended ND. They are very different experiences. OSU is multiple times the size of ND, and from my experience doesn’t have the same community feeling that ND does. If that close community feeling is important to you, then ND no doubt has the edge. If attending a very visibly Catholic university doesn’t appeal to you, then OSU might have the edge. In terms of admission to Mendoza, finance is the most popular major and is thus more difficult to get into. My '19 daughter, who is in the first class that limited direct admission to Mendoza, said that no one she knew who applied as a rising sophomore was denied a place. I don’t know how many applied as finance majors though. What I will say, not to denigrate a degree from tOSU, is that the value of an ND degree cannot be overestimated. The alumni network is second to none.
