I've had so much fun and have made my best friends, while also feeling prepared for my future after college life is over!
Miami is located is a very cutesy college town that is very nice! the campus is also SO PRETTY. My program, Zoology, wasn't the best but I still got to make a few animal courses and it was fun! Overall I would recommend this school over others that are in Ohio
