Columbus voted #5 best large city for college students

Awards & Honors

When college students step off their campus, it’s great to be able to find a variety of environments where they can shop, dine, catch a movie or go to a museum. All of those things are in Granville (or, in the case of the movies, about 10 minutes away), but Columbus, with a population of 2 million and only 30 miles away, is home to an even greater smorgasbord of things to do.

Columbus also was just named the 5th best large city in the country for college students. The accompanying article from WalletHub notes:

“Experts have argued that an institution’s geographical location is just as important as a strong curriculum and supportive school environment to a student’s academic success and personal development.”
