    Will enjoy being here

    You will get to meet great teacher, and students. When I made my first vist to the campus I knew Ottawa is where I wanted to attend because it make you feel like your are at home.

    Bang for the buck

    Even though it is a little expensive it is worth it because you get to know your teacher on a one on one basis.

    Tips for prospective students

    If you apply at then end your Junior year you will know by the end of July if you are expected to the school. The will work with you in Financial Aid and anything you need help. You just call them up and they will answer any questions.

    ottawa university is a very promising private school with many opportunites. they provide the correct tools and skills that enable their students to be successful in their life after college.

    Tips for prospective students

    consider all schools small or big, as ottawa university provides just as many opportunities as a division one school. the private school setting allows students to have a relationship with their teachers instead of just being a number.

    Academic Rigor

    very prestigious.

    Dorm Life

    there are three dorms available on the ottawa university campus. each is different from each other allowing students to pick one that will suit their living style.

    Food and Dining

    food is available in the cafeteria at nice times where students can have plenty of time to eat. when the cafe is closed there is a snack bar available where you can order burgers, chicken strips, etc.

    What to do for fun

    the student council on campus provide the students with many things to do such as: midnight donuts, movie nights, subway night, etc.

    although the school is on the expensive side of the spectrum, you definitely get your bang for the buck. the institution provides a healthy and successful environment that you wont find at other schools.

    the professors and staff really care about the success of their students. the housing options are not the best, for freshman. food plans are costly and the food is terrible.

    Tips for prospective students

    make sure you feel comfortable in a more rural, small town environment. there is not a lot to do off campus.

    Academic Rigor

    the classes are challenging even for someone that made high b's low a's in high school. however, help is available for those who ask for it.

    Dorm Life

    being a freshman, you get the worst dorms. the phone reception is bad and it has a cold atmosphere. on the plus you get to meet people you would not normally interact with.

    Food and Dining

    the food cost to much and is horrible. i could not wait to get home and eat real food.

    What to do for fun

    go to football games, fca and other campus events. there is not a lot to do in ottawa. there are parties, however i am not a drinker so i enjoy watching others make fools of themselves.

    Bang for the buck

    is any school really worth $30,000.00 a year.
