Hi everyone, my name is Dani Patel and I am a Political Science major with a minor in the Legal Foundations of Society. I was born and raised in Queens, NYC and I am loving Columbus so far! I chose Ohio State because it is such a large university filled with so many different opportunities. There is something for everyone here at OSU, whether it be a intramural sport or a fun club to be apart of. I wanted to be a part of the Honors Program because of the ability to schedule classes early and take classes for honors students only. These classes are smaller in size which allows you to make more personal connections with your professors.
I am currently a part of Phi Alpha Delta which is OSU’s pre-law fraternity which allows me to connect with students with similar interests and learn from them. I am also able to benefit from the multitude of professional development opportunities present. I am also a part of Ohio State’s Welcome Leader Program (OWL) which lets me assist student’s with move-in and officially welcome them to The Ohio State University.
OSU has been an amazing experience for me and I hope it is just as amazing for you.
