Get Started

If you're interested in making a global experience part of your academic career at Ohio University, you've come to the right place. The Office of Global Opportunities can provide information on study, intern, work, volunteer, teach or travel opportunities which are based within the US, globally or virtually! Our office can help you find an experience that's right for you regardless of your major, college of enrollment or academic level.

Need to Meet an Advisor?

Call 740.593.4583 or email global.opportunities@ohio.edu to schedule an appointment with an advisor. OGO now offers virtual appointments via Microsoft Teams (you can join a Teams meeting anytime, from any device, whether or not you have a Teams account). For more information about our current advising options, check our Contact Us page. 

Ready to Apply/Register?

Regardless of the type of experience, the application and registration process, you will begin this process in the OGO Student Portal. 

You will need to know the type of experience you are looking for (Ohio Credit, Exchange, Non-OHIO, or Travel Registration) to begin your process. For non-OHIO/affiliate programs, we strongly recommend beginning with the OHIO process before you make any financial commitments to your selected provider. 

Don't forget funding! 

The list of available scholarships and funding opportunities can be found in the "Funding" section of our website. This application process is separate from your program application and may have different deadlines than your program.
