Convenient location, spacious apartment, expensive for what it is

The location is unbeatable in my opinion if you want to live alone. The space is great and everything works well. They do nickel and dime you for everything though. You pay for wifi, heat, water, parking, gym membership, literally anything they can charge you for they do. You even pay additional costs like the utilities in the common room get split amount residents and added to your bill every month. If you can stomach the cost it is overall a nice place to live!

Founders

Founders is fine but there is a lot of hidden charges associated with living there so you need to be careful when budgeting. Utilities is usually an extra $70-$90 dollars a much and that's only going to get worse in winter. You also have to factor in wifi, parking which is either $100 or $150, and you have to pay $45 a month to use the gym there. They are having issues with the package room and packages keep getting torn into or stolen which is a problem and they would close the pool 1-2 days a week during the summer for maintenance.

-

I live alone and my apartment is nice but there is not much natural light. The location is unmatched however and many other medical students/residents live in Founders so it is easy to meet up/socialize with my fellow M1s. It is a 10-15 minute walk from medical campus which is also amazing, there is an ALDI down the street and a Target close by. The area is safe and I have never felt unsafe in my unit/building.

Great for Student Living Alone

This place is really great for what I need it for. I am a graduate student and the complex is in a really great area within walking distance of the school and nearby cafes/bars/activities. The amenities are great and the walls are surprisingly sound-resistant. I get tons of sunlight for my many plants. I am a homebody and wanted a comfy, cute, secure place to live during school and this place is great for that. The cost is a downside. It is honestly too expensive for what you get, but almost everything in the housing market is overpriced nowadays. My rent does not include the parking garage, wifi, electricity, or water. The place is also overall not super well constructed. I have had multiple chronic maintenance issues due to poor construction. However, I still am very happy to live here and have had an overall really great experience living alone here and would recommend this place to any OSU graduate students looking for a nice, secure, social, and quiet place to live.

Founders Review

Apartment is very nice! Lots of study spaces and very easy and safe walk to campus!
It is great to live in a building with many other med and professional students.
The office is not very responsive for the price that the residents pay.
