Am learning a lot
Teachers are great here. If you need help they will gladly meet with you after class or even an hour or two in their office. They don't want you to fail. There are also alot of study groups and a writing center for papers and essays
Am enjoying being here
Other than playing sports here, there are not alot of activites to do. The campus is in the middle of no where. But, the campus is around 20 min away from Columbus.
Bang for the buck
This school really wants your money. The Financial Aid is really strict and won't let you sign up for classes for the next semester unless they have all your money. It's hard to get bigger schollarships but easy to get small $500-800 ones.
Tips for prospective students
Do not come if you dont like rules. This campus has strict rules. There is a curfew for everyone. Have to go to 35 chapels in each semester (2 chapels a week) Do get fridays off
Great for these types of students
Students need help in college. Music and Religon majors. Getting closer with Christ.

I absolutely love their admissions team. Not only are they understanding and experienced counselors, but they love the Lord and help me in so many ways! They are always there and they answer every crazy question thoroughly that i throw their way.
Tips for prospective students
One thing I would say is to definitely visit the campus first. Not only is the campus absolutely beautiful, but everyone there is heart warming and willing to help and answer questions. Also, Ohio Christian University, when given the correct information, does a great job in helping in financial aid.
Dorm Life
I do not live on campus, I commute, but the dorms are nice and clean.
Food and Dining
They have wonderful food and many choices to choose from.

ohio christian university has a wonderful christian atmosphere that encourages and lifts up each student. the professor's christian values help to make the education process easier to cope with and they work well with you if extra help is needed. the community of friendships is wonderful and the small environment makes nobody left unnoticed.
Tips for prospective students
don't be intimidated by the rules/regulations on campus. compared to some private christian universities, there is more freedom here on this campus. also, don't be intimidated by financial aid issues. college is possible. wherever god wants you, he'll get you there.
Academic Rigor
some of the programs are tougher than others, but all-in-all, the class load isn't impossible. professors work hard to help you through the class and wish to encourage you through it.
Dorm Life
events are planned every other week or so so that the campus life can stay active. the small environment makes many close friendships possible.
Food and Dining
there are many options in our cafeteria to choose from -- pizza, a grill for wraps/quessadillas/burgers, a stir fry bar, and some hot-line options as well. soon, we will be getting a brand new cafeteria coming in spring of 2013 along with a brand new facility for student life.
What to do for fun
hang out! being such a small campus, there is always a group getting together to play games or go into town. in the fall of 2012, a new student center will be ready for students to use for games, homework, and other miscellaneous things.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus
ohio christian loves to ease our minds during finals week. the midnight breakfast is an evening towards the end of the semester where the professors and staff get together and cook and serve to the students a midnight breakfast. also fnl, or friday night live, is a clean comedy skit night put on at the end of the semester as well.
Great for these types of students
many types of students fit on this campus. we have social butterflies, future pastors/youth pastors, missionaries, and business leaders and also psychology-minded students, athletes, future teachers, and many with leadership potential. everyone has a place on ohio christian's campus.
Clubs and Activities
student government, rez life activities, drama team, ablaze singing group, choir, band, small groups, christian service opportunities, a round table business club, and athletics (basketball, soccer, softball, baseball, volleyball, and cross country).
Campus Safety
there have been no major crimes reported on the campus in years.
