After Class

Students at all universities do many of the same types of things, what makes the difference is the number of opportunities you have to choose from.

The most important thing you can do “after class” is study. It is estimated that to be truly successful academically you will spend two hours out of class studying for every one hour in class. Being that the general course load for Ohio State is 15 hours, you will devote 45 hours a week to coursework.

Students at Ohio State don’t study 24 hours a day, but most of them are learning at least 16 hours a day. Student organizations, part-time jobs, meeting new people, attending cultural events and conferences, and just hanging out with friends are all learning experiences. Browse the following links to find out more about these “other” learning experiences.
