I loved my time at Oregon State University. I give the overall experience a 4/5 mostly for the overall experience. Even being from Seattle I loved the small town feel of the school. There was a huge sense of community with the student body. It was small enough where you could make a good group of friends, but big enough to where you could move around and be in another group if you wanted.
Academically, I think the business program was good. I think education in general needs to evolve, so based on that factor they they great education. It was relatively easy to get into classes, the professors were committed and responses, they seemed like they wanted to be there. The academic advisors were helpful and help kept you going through the program.
I was in Greek life and this was very fun as well. However I had friends who were not and they preferred this and still has a wonderful time.
OSU also did a great job adapting to COVID and they are improving their online offerings.

I like how beautiful the campus is and how much there is to explore even after living on campus for a while. There are lots of events that go on, usually more at the start of the year when things are less busy, but you can find things to do. The food does get a little repetitive but other than that it's been a pretty nice experience, you get need to push yourself to get involved in things!
