Checking out the college scene yet? Hey, if so, congrats to you for choosing a higher education. This path can certainly lead you to much more promising careers than high school alone. The truth is in this day and age it's rather difficult to get along without a four-year degree. But you don't have to take my word for it. Simply get online and explore the range of jobs for those who lack a high education. There's really not a great deal to choose from. So unless, you want to wait tables, be a mechanic, or landscape your entire life, it's time to research schools like The Ohio State University.

It wasn't until I moved to a small town in Ohio, that I realized The Ohio State University is the largest University in the United States. And by largest I mean that it has the most registered students. This is not a bad thing by any means. Whenever you have a University with thousands and thousands of students, you'd better believe that they offer great majors and have plenty of resources. Even though I'm done with college life, I took a trip to The Ohio State University anyway. I was just curious about their campus and surrounding city of Columbus. Not to my surprise, The Ohio State University campus is gorgeous, and the city of Columbus is the finest I've seen in Ohio thus far. It's a unique setting with a beautiful German district and the old-school charm of brick streets. Naturally there is a grand shopping center nearby called Easton Town Center that literally has every store you can imagine. This shopping mecha is like a city of it's own. I was truly taken-back by it.

Historical Quote

When first the college rolls receive his name,
The young enthusiast quilts his ease for fame;
Through all his veins the fever of renown
Burns from the strong contagion of the gown;

—Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)

If you're interested in attending the largest University in the country, it's time to check into The Ohio State University. Browse through their online site to see what programs are offered and what you can expect as far as tuition goes. From what I've seen and heard, The Ohio State University is fairly affordable. Think 18 grand a year for total living costs as a full-time student. One thing I can say about this popular school is that you can't beat the location. Not to mention every potential employer will know what school you graduated from.
