Ohio has always been a uniquely American state, bringing together a wide spectrum of American people - North and South, rural and urban, low-income and wealthy, all contributing to a culture of striving, innovation, and success. Besides being a crucial Heartland state, steeped in agriculture and manufacturing, Ohio has built a reputation as one of the most business-friendly states, with a well-educated workforce and a variety of industries in its major cities and suburban areas. Whether it's aviation or agriculture, bioengineering or banking, Ohio has a place for all sorts of workers, and its top-tier public research universities, liberal arts colleges, and regional state universities are all set to prepare students for any undertaking.

"In many Americans' eyes," Managing Editor Carrie Sealey-Morris writers, "Ohio is a watchword for old-fashioned American good-heartedness - calm, thoughtful, and focused." Ohio has a history of progressivism, from its founding as a free state on, and its colleges were "founded as some of the most progressive of their time, admitting women and African-Americans on an equal basis." Not only are Ohio's universities known for their educational excellence, but they "are highly ranked for community engagement as well, providing outreach, service, health, and education beyond the buildings and landscape of campus." Many of Ohio's institutions of higher education are known for their accessibility and openness, such as The Ohio State University, which has made its reputation on accepting all and finding the best in every student. In fact, "nearly all of the top 10 Consensus Ranked schools have been ranked as best values."

College Consensus is a new approach to college rankings. We combine the latest results from the most respected college ranking systems with thousands of real student review scores from around the web to produce an aggregate College Consensus rating for each school.
