MIAMI UNIVERSITY

Miami University's historic campus, strong academic reputation, and stunning, picturesque environment make it an ideal neighbor for Oxford.

Recognized as the #1 public university in the nation for its commitment to undergraduate education (and #2 overall after Princeton), Miami is one of the nation's 8 original Public Ivy universities and is also the 7th oldest in the nation, founded in 1809. It was frequently then called the "Yale of the West."

With more than 17 miles of trails and 1,000 acres of preserve and natural areas, plus an art museum, historic Western campus, the Freedom Summer Memorial, the Cradle of Coaches, and numerous quads and gardens, it offers much to explore for visitors to Oxford. See for yourself why Robert Frost called it "The most beautiful campus that ever there was." To learn more, visit www.miamioh.edu.
