" I love the fact that for my theatre/film program, we had access to three separate theatres, each of which had its own unique characteristics that ensured that each production was special. The dedication to the craft exhibited by such a tight family of professors ensured that we were getting the best education possible for the real world. "

" Love the atmosphere here! Parking is tricky at times. They have a phenomenal gym! From what we hear from Alumni, the social scene has changed since the pandemic. I used to work out with a group in the gym and really loved that. "

" Apologies, most questions are not applicable, as I am an online only student. I will say, I started in the accounting program and found the professors in the lower level classes to be too busy with "day jobs" to be of much help to students. Much better experience after switching to listed concentration. "

" Great university to attend. Majors and minors are plenty. A lot of clubs and activities to participate in. Football games are a plus. Don't miss out on Odu. It is a great university to attend to and that you should probably go there. "

" I graduated with my degree in Public Administration from the Strome College of Business earlier this year. ODU provided the flexibility to allow me to take online and in-person classes. Most of the faculty I encountered were very good and brought a lot of previous experience from their past life, when they worked in the industry. That real world experience was probably the most valuable part of the program. I chose ODU because it is one of the most affordable doctoral granting institutions in Virginia and value for money was important to me. "
