The University Of Findlay And Ohio Dominican University

Decent Essays

As a senior in high school the time has come when people begin to ask big and sometimes overwhelming questions like, “Where are you going to college?” and “What will be your major?” These questions, of course, lead to college visits and decisions. The two colleges that seem to meet my criteria are The University of Findlay and Ohio Dominican University. Both colleges have positive aspects, such as having the major that I am interested in as well as being close to family. However, The University of Findlay seems to be a better fit than Ohio Dominican because it is closer to home and I am familiar with the campus and I grew up on this campus.
When comparing The University of Findlay (UF) and Ohio Dominican University (ODU), I have found similarities and differences that can be seen as positive and negative. ODU is a private, Catholic university that covers ninety three acres of land and was founded in 1911. There are 2,600 students enrolled at ODU. Of the students, fifty seven percent are female and forty three percent are male. ODU has undergraduate and graduate programs. The University has sixteen athletic teams that compete in the NCAA Division II and provides more than forty organizations for the students to be involved in. (“How ODU Rank Among America’s Best Colleges?”) (“ODU Quick Facts”). ODU offers more than forty five majors (“Ohio Dominican Offers More than 45 Majors”) and does have middle school education for teaching, which is a major that I am considering.
