About This School
Ohio State University-Mansfield Campus is a public institution located in Mansfield, Ohio with approximately 736 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $16,197 per year. The graduation rate is 15%, and the typical graduate earns $53,600 within 10 years of enrollment.
This campus is best suited for students who live nearby, need to stay close to home for financial or family reasons, and plan to transfer to Ohio State's main Columbus campus after completing their first two years — that's honestly the strongest use case here. The $16,197 average net price is reasonable, and eventually earning an Ohio State degree can open real doors, but you need to go in with a clear plan because the data raises serious flags. A 15% graduation rate and a 34% freshman retention rate mean the majority of students who start here don't finish — that's not a reflection of the students, but it does suggest the campus struggles to keep people on track. The good news is that median debt of $19,976 is manageable relative to median earnings of $53,600 ten years out, so if you do complete a degree, the financial picture isn't dire. My honest advice: if you're considering this school, sit down with an academic advisor before you enroll and map out exactly how credits transfer to Columbus, because the path to a diploma needs to be intentional from day one.
