College Credit Plus Orientation (Athens)

College Credit Plus (CC+) Orientation is a half-day orientation program designed to help secondary students learn more about CC+, the student experience, and register for classes. Attending CC+ Orientation is required for students to register for classes. This orientation program is only for Athens campus students.

Step 2: Sign-Up for College Credit Plus Orientation (Athens)

Step 3: Request Transcripts and AP Results

Prior to attending CC+, request that official transcripts and test scores be sent to Ohio University. Eligible college credits from another institution, exam credit or other transferable credit will only be applied once official documents have been received from the institution or testing agency. As a reminder, your high school will not send college-level transcripts or test score reports on your behalf; you must request these directly from the institution or testing agency. 

Official transcripts, exam credits or other credits should be sent electronically as a secure PDF to admissions@ohio.edu or by postal mail to: Undergraduate Admissions, Chubb Hall 120, 1 Ohio University Dr., Athens, OH 45701.

Have additional questions about transfer credit? Check out the Undergraduate Admissions website for transferring your credit or contact Heather Martin (martinh2@ohio.edu).

Step 4: Determine if You Need to Take a Placement Test

Consider completing a Placement Exam if you will be enrolling in Chemistry, Computer Science, or a Foreign Language. Placement Exams should be completed at least three days prior to your CC+ orientation date to ensure appropriate courses are scheduled! This page is updated each year as we approach summer orientation programs, so students are encouraged to check back after May 1 for final placement test information.

Step 5: Enroll in Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)

Multi-factor authentication (MFA) protects you against lost or stolen passwords by adding a verification step to your OHIO login. New students are required to enroll in MFA before participating in their CC+ program. This step is important to ensure students can access their MyOHIO Student Center during course registration. Failure to enroll in MFA may result in delays in course registration.

CC+ Orientation Parking 

The parking location will be shared closer to the start of the event. When students and their guests arrive to the parking lot, they will be greeted by orientation leaders and given a parking permit. Students and their guests will then be directed to Walter Hall for check-in. This parking permit is only for CC+ orientation and is not a permit to park on-campus past the orientation date.
