[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone visited in person?  What is it like?  What is Oxford like?[/quote]

The campus is beautiful. Classic Georgian architecture. Be sure to get out to Western campus (ironically located on the Eastern side of grounds -- it's the former Western College for Women). It's literally one of the most beautiful, prototypical university campuses in the nation. They've filmed movies here because of it (see Clooney's "Ides of March" and Jodie Foster's "Little Man Tate" and the forthcoming "Turtles All the Way Down")

Oxford (called "Uptown") is basically a classic college town. Overrun by students in the school year. Townies resent them. Etc. Frat houses everywhere (Miami is home to like four or five original fraternity chapters -- no sorority houses, just suites on campus due to laws that said unmarried women living together were houses of ill repute).

Not really close to anything. Cincinnati is like 40 minutes away. Dayton nearly an hour.

Great overview. Thanks. Do students find Oxford too small after a while? [/quote]
