Oglethorpe is a really great school.Its very small as compared to most colleges only about 1200 students total. That’s also one of the reasons why no one has heard of it. Oglethorpe is a great school depending on what you plan to do with your life. Classes are small (10-20 students) so you will get to know your professors and you classmates. The campus is small but absolutely beautiful.Most of the buildings were built in a old england neo-gothic style of architecure so the whole campus looks like a group of castles nestled in the hills. There aren’t many classes to choose from but through oglethorpe you can take classes at about 15 other universities in atlanta (Ga tech,Ga state,Emory) or around the world free of charge. Oglethorpe’s rep. is not as big as yale but if you plan to work in theater, English, or business Oglethorpe is a very big name in Atlanta and surrounding area. Oglethorpe is also really affordable it costs about 30,000 for tuition, room and board,but Oglethorpe is paying for 25,000 for me.I didn’t even win their biggest scholarship.Unless you are bill gates’ kid most ppl get at least a couple 1000 even if they are dumb as rocks.
