Future Ohio State Students

 

OSU Admissions offers a variety of opportunities to visit and learn more about OSU.  We encourage prospective students to arrange an Admissions Overview and Tour to learn about Ohio State's application and admissions requirements.

If you are interested in Atmospheric Sciences or any other Geography major, we encourage you to attend a Visit Day that offers a Social and Behavioral Overview.  These Visit Days are denoted with a "yellow star" on the date select calendar when you select one of the Geography Department majors.

During a Visit Day that includes a Social and Behavioral Overview session, you will be provided summary information about this group of majors and meet one of the Geography Advisors.

Unable to make it to campus for a visit? No problem! We are happy to send you additional information via email, postal mail or phone. Please contact Ali Grandey, Academic Planning Specialist, at grandey.4@osu.edu to request additional information or schedule an individualized visit to the Geography Department.
