At Ohio University we’re reimagining the student experience. We create an individualized curricular and experiential pathway with a clear timeline to completion that meets the needs of each individual student.
Prepare for your journey with defined expectations, goals, and outcomes that are uniquely suited for you and your aspirations.
Be curious, explore, and engage with faculty and staff through guided milestones and a guaranteed path for post-graduate success.
Continue to be active alumni, enriching the next generation of Bobcats.
We can help with that. We work with you to create an OHIO Guarantee+ Graduation Plan. All you have to do is commit to taking the actions necessary to follow the plan and meet the milestones outlined.
If a student meets all the obligations of their Guarantee+ Graduation Plan but cannot graduate on time and on plan due to the unavailability of necessary courses or other required elements in their plan, Ohio University will find a way to make it right, including appropriate course substitutions or covering the tuition and fees of any additional required courses, if necessary.
You can expect intentional check-ins along the way as outlined in your OHIO Guarantee+ Graduation Plan to make sure you are on track. We work together to update your plan as necessary as you explore your interests and identify new opportunities.
Advisors are the Ohio University experts for your degree and major interests. They help you explore academic interests, identify resources for additional information and support, and develop your graduation guarantee plans.
Career strategists provide career direction to help assess your interests, abilities and values in your educational career path. They help you determine next steps and develop a plan to achieve your professional goals.
Experience designers provide support in finding, preparing for, and reflecting on opportunities to learn by doing in the six categories of experiential learning. They strive to increase access to hands-on learning and remove barriers to allow all OHIO students to participate in experiential learning.
You will work together with an academic advisor to co-create and monitor a personalized graduation plan. This includes meeting with your advisor and career strategist as outlined in your plan, registering for courses during your enrollment window, engaging in experiential learning opportunities, and checking progress towards your degree. Each academic year, you will have a personalized check-ins to make sure your plan is on-track and relevant.
The OHIO Guarantee+ adds value to your Ohio University education at no additional cost to you! OHIO provides a pathway for you to succeed and prepares you for life after college.
All undergraduate programs in Athens and Regional Higher Education will be included by Fall 2023, except for programs in Honors Tutorial College.
