Student Life
There's no doubt that medical school can be tough, demanding and consuming. But you can have a life outside that world. Taking time for family, getting to know your classmates, volunteering with a community organization, exploring campus and Columbus, playing team sports or cycling along the river can re-energize you and bring important balance to your life. Students enter Ohio State as well-rounded individuals - we hope that remains true throughout their medical education and beyond.
