My daughter is a freshman, from MA. (not engineering) She loves it! She was looking for the big football team / big school spirit. And she loves the city campus. We love Columbus, lots of great little neighborhoods, but I will say there is crime, as in any city. You just need to be careful.

She loves that there’s a lot of stuff right off campus, and she can get a little further off with a scooter, or even further with a zip car. I really like that the airport is only 15 minutes away, and there are direct flights from Boston.

She’s had mixed results with the student health center. Food options are good, even with her dietary restrictions. She has probably one of the worst dorms on campus, but it’s ok. No AC, no kitchen. Miserably hot the first few weeks, but she made it through.

It is a big university, but it’s fairly well organized. Their website has tons and tons of information.
