“ODU Is not a bad school.AverageEducation
ODU Is not a bad school. YOU make the best of your situation. Most people blame a school for their negative attitudes (not having friends ect) when in fact it is your own fault. I had about eighteen people from my high school in NOVA come to ODU. Six of these people droped out after the first semester. These people decided to leave in October. They went home every weekend and never tried to make new friends. (some also went home for relationships, not smart). When I returned for spring semester I recieved messages from these individuals all stating that they made a mistake and a rash decision to return home. All I could do was laugh. My advice not just with ODU but going to any school. Be positive, the first semester will be tough,don;t go home alot and stay a full year.

This is not Harvard, but I believe offers a tough work load. I also believe there is also a lot to do in Norfolk where it is located which ives the school a nice vibe outside of the classroom.
