The classes at OSUN are much, much smaller than main campus and the professors are very accessable. Although there are a handful of bad professors, the ones I've had have all been excellent. There are so few of the bad ones that it's easy to find the bad ones through word-of-mouth.

Also, you can take a few classes at Main, although half your credit hours have to be at Newark. Main is about an hour's drive each way from here.

The bad things are the fact that there are very few classes offered compared to main and that they're not held every quarter and that there is little to do in Newark after ten P.M. There are a few programs a month, but it's nothing like a big university. Most people who live in the dorms drive to Easton if they want to do something at night.

I lived in the dorms this year, as well. They are very, very nice apartments, but also sort of expensive—about $1700 a quarter. However, there's no extra cost for utilities, internet, or cable bills and you won't waste gas driving to and from school. Also, there are additional res hall programs offered throughout the year.
