Out of stater going to LSU/Ole Miss

Hey all. New Jerseyan who will be attending the LSU/Ole Miss game in September with my dad. We try to pick out a big game to travel to each year and luckily chose this one a while back (pre Lane to LSU). Just looking for some suggestions on pregame activities. Last year we went to Bama and were able to find a paid for tailgate (tent, food, TVs, beer, alcohol). I’m not having the same luck this time around. Any suggestions for an out-of-stater on a pregame itinerary/gameplan?

Is ole miss racist?

My entire plan has always been to move out of state for college, but looking at these prices it’s looking like something that’s not gonna happen unless I get a scholarship. I would have no problem with paying/taking out the loans for this if I were only going to college, but my plan is to go to medical school after college so having that much debt just to be in a different state is unrealistic to me. The most financially sound and logical option would be to stay in state, and so I’m looking at Ole Miss to be the college that I apply to, but I’ve heard so many bad things about people being racist there and I want the opinions of people who actually go there to tell me their experiences on if this is true or not, and how much it affects your daily life. I’ve also heard of somebody getting lynched at a nearby college and all of this is just very concerning to me. I do not wanna go if I would be putting myself in potential danger to people who are racist and prejudice.

As for my stats, I have a 4.0 GPA, a 28 on the ACT currently but I’m retaking it soon, I haven’t taken the SAT yet and I don’t know if I should, if that would help with anything.

Any international students starting at Ole Miss in Fall 2026?

Hi everyone!

I’m an international student from the Philippines who’s currently finalizing my application for Fall 2026 at Ole Miss.

Assuming everything goes well, I’m hoping to join this fall, but I may arrive later than expected because of the student visa processing timeline.
I wanted to ask:

•Are there any other international students starting in Fall 2026?
• Has anyone experienced arriving after the semester officially starts because of visa delays? If so, how did the university handle it?
•Is Ole Miss generally understanding if an international student arrives a little late due to visa processing?
•When do most international students typically arrive for orientation and check-in?

Any advice on housing, airport transportation, or anything you wish you had known before coming?
I’d also love to connect with other incoming international students. Thanks in advance!

We're letting domestic abusers into Ole Miss?

Never meant to take shots at the school by saying that we have a high acceptance rate, I love it here. All I meant was that sometimes we may be a little too welcoming if we're letting in domestic abusers who are still making violent threats. Just letting this slide and ignoring it isn't going to solve the problem.

Landlord Tenant Advice

Is there any resource we have at Ole Miss for students? The landlord charged 2300$ for moveout charges when the home was left very left and without any damages.

Help a international student out 🥲

First, I would like to ask if it is possible to withdraw or unsubmit the documents that I recently uploaded to my application. I realized that I may have accidentally submitted the wrong file, and I would like to know if there is a way to replace it with the correct document.

I would also like to inquire about the scholarships available for international students. Are there any scholarships that I may still apply for, and what are the eligibility requirements? If possible, could professors or academic departments endorse international applicants for scholarship opportunities?

In addition, I would like to ask about housing options for international students. Are on-campus accommodations available, and when should I begin the housing application process?

I would also appreciate it if anyone could know when the Fall 2026 term officially begins. In the event of unforeseen delays with my application, visa processing, or travel arrangements, would it still be possible to enroll or arrive slightly after the semester has started?

Liquor store

I just turned 21 and I’m looking for what liquor stores in Oxford are the best. I’m talking a mix of fair prices and a good selection. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Hey Yall I'm a full time (not famous) comedian coming to Oxford 7/28 for a show. Wondering if anyone had any tips/connections to get the word out? I'm fully DIY by choice and have spent the last 13 years zig zagging the country headlining shows in 37 states (and Canada!). Lemme know whats up. AMA.

Any cool local blogs or instagram pages that share events or anything? Any local news conections? anything is appreciated, much love

Here's my bio, sorry it's in the third person: Dan Alten is a charming goofball from Kentucky who has been traveling the country for the past decade doing about 200 shows a year bringing his intelligently surreal bebop nonsense everywhere from theaters to punk basements to art galleries to beloved comedy clubs with a knack for making audiences feel like they're on a good psychedelic trip without the drugs. Like if the Ramones were one guy with a mustache and good jokes. Iggy Pop with puns. Clever chaos. Like Jimi Hendrix lighting fire to a Tik Tok reel live on stage. He has opened for Kyle Kinane, Bobcat, Sam Tallent, Rory Scovel, Sarah Sherman from SNL, Johnny Pemberton, Hari Kondabolu, rapper Open Mike Eagle, DJ Doug Pound & David Leibe Hart from Tim & Eric, various punk bands with silly names, and a guy at an open mic who tried to throw his father’s ashes into the crowd. He has recorded 2 albums, written a zine, and filmed a pilot for an Amazon Prime stand up show that was lost to history. But most importantly he’s very funny and unique. You will enjoy him. And if not you can mud wrestle him after the show.

Good mechanic? Midas?

Kenny Warren and Deals were recommended, both pretty much hang up the phone as soon as they heard it was an import lol....

Was told to avoid Oxford Auto Care... apparently they won't just fix the issue and want to fix anything connected to the issue.

Have a brake issue, might be a stuck pin, might just be rotors are too old and need replacing

Midas said they will, lots of reviews but most look fake/bots

Visiting the week of a weak opponent?

How is the football game day experience when facing a losing school?

Looking to visit for a game soon and November 21 against Wofford works well schedule-wise. Since it's right before Thanksgiving break and against a lame football team, will this be low turnout pregame and in-game? Would like to see our first game, but didn't want a lessened experience. Thanks!

Experience with OUT bus

I'm an incoming grad student and I'm hoping it's possible to forgo getting a parking pass since my apartment will be on a OUT route and the stops are closer to my department buildings than either the commuter red or blue parking zones.

I know the commuter passes sell out fast though so I want to be sure taking the bus is doable. Are the buses generally reliable, and do they get super full during the week? Any negative experiences?

Edit: thanks for all the info! I'm feeling much better about taking the bus. Glad to hear so many people have had good experiences.

Out of Staters, why did you decide to come to Ole Miss?

Just curious, don’t be afraid to be honest. Football? Greek life? Weather?

Ole Miss or Alabama?

I’m transferring into one of these schools for one year + another year for a masters in finance. Which one should I choose, not considering financial reasons?

Planning to major in Finance if that wasn’t obvious.

Which Scholarships to Apply to?

Hi everyone! I'm posting on behalf of my little sister.

I'm trying to help her find scholarships to help pay for school, and I'd love any advice or recommendations. She's going into her sophomore year at Ole Miss, majoring in Marketing and Graphic Design, and she's a member of Pi Beta Phi.

Academically, she's more of an average student than a straight-A student. She took Honors/AP classes in high school and earned mostly A's and B's, and in college she's been earning a mix of A's, B's, and some C's. She's incredibly artistic, though, and her strengths are definitely in design and creativity.

I've been having a hard time finding scholarships that are specifically for current Ole Miss students or continuing students (most seem to be for incoming freshmen). Since I'm not an Ole Miss student myself, I'm sure there are opportunities I'm missing.

Does anyone know of:

  • Ole Miss scholarships for current students?
  • Scholarships through the School of Business or Graphic Design/Marketing programs?
  • Pi Phi or Greek life scholarships?
  • Local Mississippi or Oxford scholarships that students often overlook?

Any tips, resources, or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much in advance!

Picking a major

How did you decide what degree to pursue? Was it a process of deep research, gut feeling, maybe influenced by someone in your family in the field, etc, etc.? Was return on investment-cost compared to potential future salary-a factor in your decision?
