Welcome to Ohio University.

It’s a great place to complete a bachelor’s degree, whether you are transferring from another school or are a former Ohio University student.

We want to help make your transition as smooth as possible. So we’ve compiled a tour of some important information that you should be aware of as you become a Bobcat!

We don't expect you to memorize all of this information...and there won't be a quiz. But please look through all 7 sections so you know where to find answers when you need them. You can come back to this information at any time for reference.

In this “Get Acquainted tour” we’ll take you through 7 sections:

1. Tuition, financial aid and related items
2. “How to" find it or do it yourself
   
3. Speaking OUr Language--terminology and definitions
   
4. Policies
5. Information about taking online courses
6. Grades
7. Tools, tips and useful links for success

You can also search for a specific item using the A-Z list of everything that is covered in these sections.

There’s a lot to learn about OHIO, so let’s get started. At the bottom of each page you will find a button to move to the next section. Or you can go to any section by using the menu at the left of the page. It takes about 45 minutes to go through the entire Get to Know Ohio University material. You can stop and come back at any time.

Students registering for classes in the online bachelor's degree completion programs should complete this tour prior to beginning their first class. When the tour has been completed, e-mail your advisor, Kelly Czack, to let her know you have finished reviewing the information. Include your name in the e-mail message.
