[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am an OSU grad. Columbus is a great big town/small city. Very different from the rest of the state. OSU is very big. If your kid is not good at handling stuff on his/her own, I probably would pick a different school. Football is pervasive in a way that is still hard for me to understand. It is taken very seriously. There is a ton of school spirit. The weather is not great (worse than the DC area - more gray and cold in winter, humid in summer).

I went because it was in state and basically free for me. I probably wouldn’t pay OOS tuition for one of my kids unless one of them had a compelling reason for going there. But I feel that way about many state schools. The exceptions for me would be Michigan, UNC, and UVA. I wouldn’t pay for Penn State or Michigan State absent a very compelling reason.

If your child is interested, definitely check the school out on a non-football time. Football is super important, but it is just a handful of weekends in the fall that they are at home and really is not indicative of life as a student the rest of the time.

You, as a tOSU alum, would pay OOS tuition for your kid to go to the school up north but not your alma mater? You're not a real Buckeye.[/quote]

Objectively, Michigan is a better school. It is. I had good reason to go to OSU, but if we are talking about OOS tuition, Michigan is much better bang for your buck. [/quote]

30-24! Suck on that! [/quote]

Congratulations on being a bunch of cheaters. Probably cheated your way up the USNWR rankings, too. The Xichigan grads I've met in the workforce have been unimpressive across the board.[/quote]
