The small class sizes and individual attention from one's professor (as opposed to a graduate assistant as is the case at most large schools) sets students up for success. It's impossible to just blend in during a class.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
I played soccer for four years there, and it was the best experience I've had playing in the 16 years I've been involved with the game. I know every single professor I've had on a first name basis, and love the professional connections and contacts that I have been able to make.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
Otterbein is a private school and is pretty expensive. However, as a financially independent student, there have been plenty of resources at my fingertips to make earning my education here affordable. That is, if you don't mind accumulated some student loans!
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Visit as many schools you can and resist getting caught up in the name of an institution. Choosing which college to attend is a very difficult and important decision. Take into consideration the things you like to do and what you're trying to get out of your education. If it's a small college set within a great, safe community that is minutes from Easton, Polaris and OSU, then Otterbein University (it's no longer College) may be for you.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Students who are eager to learn and want to attend college somewhere that is safe yet minutes from a big metropolitan city. Also, those interested in Theatre and Dance will love our nationally renowned department and the amazing productions they put together.
