The Ohio State University - OSU (reviews)

I studied Information Technology at The Ohio State University. The program was very practical, we learned a lot about programming, networking and systems, and the professors were supportive when you asked for help. Campus facilities like the labs and library were great, but some classes were quite large. Overall I had a good experience and I would recommend the IT program to others interested in tech.

I went to Ohio State as an undecided freshman. I was filtered to the right academic program and had my confidence built along the way. I graduate with an exceptional education and an wonderful experience overall.

The staff and administration are surprisingly tech-forward and helpful, especially when it comes to career services and international student support. They know the curriculum is tough, so they provide a massive safety net of resources. The enrollment and starting process is straightforward and very data-driven—everything is online, clear, and efficient. If you’re a self-starter who wants a school that respects your time and provides world-class mentorship, this is the place.

Though is took me a while to catch on to the course (I’m not that great at math), I was finally able to balance my spread sheets and maintain a good work/life/school balance. If I could start again, I would have taken this straight out of high school, but going back to school at a later age does present it’s challenges. I encourage those who do have troubles, to get a tutor straight away that way you don’t fall behind trying to white knuckle and push your way through.
