"Not a good experience with university of Mississippi at all. During the period of my study at OleMiss, I was always stressed out and was treated poorly by school staffs. My heart was broken every time I had an issue, especially with financial aid office because they never helped me out. I would not recommend this school to anyone."

"University of Mississippi did not satisfy my expectation. I did not see what they had told me about their school, their educational system at pharmacy school is very poor and disorganized. They only raise up their tuition year by year. Could I have chosen school again, I would never go to university of Mississippi ever."

"I did not get a good experience from University of Mississippi. Their tuition is incredibly expensive along with very little (or not at all) financial assistance. It is located in a very small and boring place and there is not that much to do. I was not happy with their educational service either."

"I feel sorry for whoever chooses university of Mississippi for education. I went to this school for few years and had nothing but bad memories and low class education. The school is suffering from poor and disorganized educational system, their advisors are not properly trained and treat students poorly. The town is too small and almost nothings to do. In addition, university of Mississippi fails to provide decent and proper financial aids to students, I went to financial aid office several times, but they did not assist me at all. I did not receive a good service from them at all. This is the worse school that I have ever seen in my life. Among their different departments, pharmacy school is the worst. They do not care about their students and treat them very badly. All they care is money and get it from students to fill up their packets! I would never go back there again. I strongly recommend to AVOID university of Mississippi."

"I feel sorry for whoever chooses this school for his/her education. University of Mississippi is the worse school that I have seen and experienced in my life. I have nothing to say but negative about this school. Their professors and teachers are doing poor jobs, their educational system is not well at all. I consider going to University of Mississippi is one of my biggest mistakes. The city is too small and boring. they have very old equipment and they are not update to date at all. Among those different departments, the worse one is Pharmacy school. They have very bad advisors. I enrolled there and started taking some pre-pharmacy courses. Unfortunately, they did not provide a good service to me and their people were not responsive at all. They did not treat their students fair at all. Among them, Dr. ziaeddin shariat-madar was the worst professor there. He was very unresponsive and disorganized, always mad with very short temper. He treated his students very poorly. I strongly recommend avoiding this school. I would never go there again."

"The University of Mississippi is a great college to attend. It is a well maintained campus with many classes and majors offered. I am from Mississippi, so the only thing i wish i had done differently was going to an out of state school for a more diverse group of class mates and culture. Although it was great, i knew what to expect and my overall college experience was nothing out of the ordinary. There are many out of state students that attend Ole Miss, so it allows you to meet a variety of people, though. I would suggest sticking to one major throughout your college career because it will only put you further behind, and tuition is not cheap. However, Ole Miss is one of the most affordable out of state colleges, but not changing career paths also allows you to finish on time. The atmosphere on campus is great and they are constantly renovating things to keep up with the changing designs."

  • Degree: Journalism
"Journalism at The University of Mississippi is a tremendous program that grooms students for the workforce. It prepares them for a real-world setting in which they would be conducting quality reporting and serving the public as purveyors of information. The program offers hands-on training, in which the professor will act as editor, and the student is required to report on matters on campus and in the community. It approximates an actual newsroom experience, and it even allows the student to get published in student-run publications like Oxford Stories or The Daily Mississippian. Other requisite courses center on the student learning how to navigate certain Adobe programs like Premiere Pro (video-editing), Audition (audio-editing) and Photoshop. It also gives students a cursory knowledge of graphic design for poster, magazine and application editing through programs like InDesign. Moreover, the program offers courses that take a standard educational approach and textbook curriculum, including lecture-based classes on the laws, ethics and history of media. Overall, the program leaves the student with a well-rounded understanding of how to employ a range of storytelling tools and techniques, and it helps the student know how to operate in the present-day media environment with respect for journalisms guiding principles."

"I thoroughly enjoyed being a student at the University of Mississippi. I received a Bachelor of Science degree in Exercise Science from this university. I believe that the education that I received was an excellent foundation for my Master of Athletic Training degree and Doctor of Physical Therapy degree. Fondly known as "The Harvard of the South," I know that when others learn that I graduated from the University of Mississippi, this easily sets me apart from anyone else because of the awesome reputation of my alma mater!"

"The University of Mississippi was a great experience in my student career. When I attended this university I was very focused because I was already married with a baby. The faculty was always very supportive of me. I believe that I was taught what was needed to be a successful professional. One of my best memories was a very well-dressed teacher coming to our classroom to show us how a professional should always look like a professional because you are respected more when you are professional from the inside out. I take the advice from this professional daily and I try my best to behave in a professional manner, react professional, and look professional. These seem like small things but they make a big difference in how coworkers, parents, and students perceive you. On top of the "small" things I learned at the University of Mississippi, I also learned how to differentiate instruction for my students, adequately plan lessons, and how to guide a student-led classroom. The classroom started to change from whole group instruction and teacher-led instruction, which is what I was raised in, to individualized instruction and student-led activities. I am highly satisfied that the institution gave me an education that has been considered advanced instruction since 2003."

"I attended the largest university in Mississippi. Not only is it known for its beautiful campus, but it is also rich in history. Ole Miss has endless opportunities for students to become involved in extra-curricular activities. Thanks to The University of Mississippi, I was able to spend a semester abroad in South Africa, which challenged me to thrive in diverse environments. The welcoming environment and the excellent professors made my time at Ole Miss even more enjoyable. I can honestly say that the six years I spent at Ole Miss have been the BEST years of my life.

"The University of Mississippi is an amazing school with a faculty and staff that is ready to help you in any way possible. The professors within the Classics department were particularly helpful and attentive. They helped me realize my dream of graduate school and working in a museum to help preserve our history for future generations. I was able to complete an amazing internship with a recommendation from the staff as well as getting into the graduate school of my dreams (The University of the Arts). I will begin there this fall in the Museum Communications graduate program. The campus is also beautiful and has many places to study outside when the weather is nice. I would recommend this university to anyone wanting an amazing staff, beautiful place, and the experience of living in a small college town."

From the professors leading the way in the classroom to the lifelong friends you make outside on campus, once you visit the University of Mississippi you will also find your home here. From the rigorous classroom materials taught you will be more than prepared for the opportunities that await you after graduation."

"The University of Mississippi is more than just a world class education. It is a life-changing, eye-opening experience that a graduate cannot forget. The level of diversity in and out of the classroom truly makes Ole Miss the ideal university choice. Upon choosing Ole Miss, I knew I was choosing to further my education at a school with a beautiful campus, but what I did not know is that I would make the connections and the friends that will last me a lifetime, while gaining an education that has prepared me well for my future. I highly recommend The University of Mississippi for its campus, its professors, its game day experiences, and the overall good feeling you get when you are there."

"Ole Miss is an amazing campus in it self. You wont see man campuses as large, with the scenic landscaping. Also the buildings. You can definitely feel the history when you are there, the Tradition. The University is continually growing, you will have some of the newest dorms that are extremely nice and walking distance to the grove, and all your classes. the two cafeterias have a awesome variety of main franchise foods, and also healthy choice meals. there is always something to do, or a event to interact with at OLE Miss, not to mention one of the best tail gating schools of all time no matter what sport, but lets face it football is always better. the curriculum itself whatever your studying will be a challenge as every professor is a expert in their field and have PHD, from all over the country. professors from china, japan, korea, and germany all of which are highly challenging and intelligent."
