    A great school for students looking for a tighter knit community at a lower price. The school prides itself of its emphasis on interdisciplinary learning. Expect smaller class sizes and professors that care if you do. It is located in a smaller town, but is only an hour away from a metropolitan area. The living arrangements are decent quality and offer multiple options. Like all colleges, you will wish it was cheaper, but it is not overly expensive.

    The faculty and professors work really hard to prepare students for the real world. The professors were really encouraging and helpful when it came to class work and understanding the material. The school atmosphere is lacking some in school spirit and the student body seems to disinterested in finishing school. Overall, it was an enjoyable experience and loved every minute of it.
    USAO is a very friendly campus and also very diverse which is wonderful! The classes are very interesting and the teachers are very hands on.
