The Scoop
The University of Mississippi, known as Ole Miss, is a public research university located in Oxford, Mississippi, and is the state's flagship institution. With approximately 22,000 students, Ole Miss offers strong programs in accountancy, pharmacy, law, and the liberal arts. The School of Accountancy is consistently ranked among the best in the nation, and the university has a proud literary tradition.
Campus life at Ole Miss is defined by its Southern charm, deep traditions, and passionate Rebel athletics — particularly the Grove, one of the most iconic tailgating destinations in all of college football. Oxford is frequently cited as one of America's best college towns, with a vibrant literary culture, excellent dining, and a walkable town square. The campus features a blend of antebellum architecture and modern facilities. Admissions are moderately selective, and Ole Miss attracts students who want a well-rounded Southern university experience with strong traditions, a beautiful campus, and a growing academic reputation.
Ole Miss's graduates carry a deep connection to the university and Oxford, with alumni networks that are particularly strong in law, business, and the arts throughout the South. The university's literary heritage — William Faulkner's home is on campus — adds a cultural dimension that few universities can match. A campus tour with a current Rebel shows you the Grove, the historic campus, and the Southern charm that make Ole Miss a place students fall in love with and never forget.
SchoolScoops offers private, student-led University of Mississippi campus tours starting at $75 for one hour or $150 for two hours. Tours are available in person or by video chat and are led by a real, verified current Ole Miss student of your choice.
