University of Mississippi is in a great location with a beautiful campus! The size of the school is not too big or small. The student population has people from a wide variety of places. There are plenty of ways to get involved at the university. Students have the ability to find just the right classes that they need. The only thing I would warn incoming students about is the big focus on greek life at the University of Mississippi. Some people really enjoy it, while others could think is a little too much. On the other hand, I do not have any negative things to say about the university as a whole.
I have really enjoyed my time here so far. I am an out of state sophomore. Ole Miss caught my attention as soon as I walked on to campus and I knew it was my future school and my future home. My first semester was a rough adjustment and I definitely had my doubts. However, once you adjust from being away from home, get comfortable with your classes, and meet your people; you are set. The community here is so welcoming and energetic. The campus is absolutly gorgeous. The classes are challenging and the professor are encouraging. Plus, you cannot beat the Grove tailgating! I know I have chosen the best school and am so excited to see what else the campus brings!
I am currently a freshman at the University of Mississippi (OleMiss). Since I first stepped foot on campus I knew this school was right for me. Everyone is so friendly and happy here. My professors are very invested in my education and will always go the extra mile to help us students understand and maintain the material. OleMiss has many opportunities and facilities for students to come and receive extra tutoring and one on one time to better excel in all courses. The campus is genuinely one of the most beautiful college campuses. OleMiss does an amazing job of keeping the campus beautiful and clean. Not only does OleMiss strive to better students education, it one of the best schools in the sec. OleMiss does a phenomenal job of connecting students in on campus and helping us create lifelong relationships. I am so grateful I chose OleMiss to be my home. Hotty Toddy!
