Ohio Christian University

"Wonderful University to send your children. Our son and now daughter-in-law still reflect on how it was an amazing 4 years going to school here. Caring professors and athletic coaches. Small campus with fun activities in a safe environment."

"This is a terrible place for higher learning. All they want is your money. My daughter went there for 1 year before switching to another college. Most of her credits wouldn't transfer because they weren't even necessary for what she was studying. Their cost of books were way out of the norm and was intentionally made so that they had no value for classes coming up behind you. Therefore you couldn't even sell them to other students. The female students are treated much different than the male students. They even suggested that the females were there to meet their mates while the males were there to study. My daughter went on to get her Masters from the other college she attended. But she owes this college a third of her debt for just that one year. Let's not forget all the buildings that this place is adding while they over charge and under educate their students. In my opinion and from what I myself witnessed I'd say they should stick to just teaching kids to become pastors. They are also extremely right wing politically and discourage any sort of free thought. I myself am a moderate and a Christian and I raised my children the same way. We encourage free thought, charity and true Christianity. This place is nothing but greed. They paid Ben Carson an obscene amount of money to speak there while they took the money from their students. That money could have gone for much better use. As a fiscal conservative I find this college to be extremely liberal with the students tuition money. I'm not even going to mention the scandals in recent years, But I will say I'm not surprised by them one bit."

"Having the opportunity to attend and complete a Master of Arts in Ministry at Ohio Christian University was totally a God thing. Even though the university is not one of the United Methodist Church's approved schools, I was permitted to participate with some of my credits going toward the UMC Course of Study. The VA has payed for my education here and I will be graduating in April. The graduate education I received here was much more rigorous than my undergraduate nursing education...and that is saying a lot. (Just ask any RN about the difficulty and time spent in preparation to become an RN.) The staff and professors have always been professional and courteous, returning calls and emails in a timely manner. This 18 month experience has also proven to be an extremely spiritually formative period. I am thankful to my cohort group who contributed to my education as well. Thank you OCU!"

"A decent school that allowed me to take one class at a time which is hugely beneficial to me since I have to help my parents out. But at one point I started to not do so well because of the mental illness (depression) that I suffer with and other things in my life had started getting in the way of my work. I sent in an appeal and it was rejected, I was kicked out and I don't think that I was given a fair chance. Other than that it is a good school for others who can only do one class at a time."

"Two of my sons graduated from Ohio Christian University and it was a wonderful experience for both of them. The knowledge they received there as graduates has resulted in both of them owning and operating very successful businesses. Most of all, they we're loved and cared about by friends and staff alike. I had reservations at first but it was the best place they could have gone and now the university has grown by leaps and bounds. They both received encouragement and support throughout their time there over all. Most of all they we're encouraged in their walk with the Lord and are young men seeking after Jesus and doing their best to live for Him and care for their families while serving others and giving back to their communities in many ways. I have a great respect for this University."
