Meet Your Territory Respresentative
The Undergraduate Admissions Staff at OHIO is available to help match up VAAN members to activities and events that provide a meaningful contribution to the admissions process and best serve our potential students. To locate the appropriate staff member that serves your geographic area, please visit our Admissions Staff web page.
College Fairs
If you are interested in volunteering for a College Fair or have questions, please contact the appropriate territory representative before the deadline that is posted for the fair. You can find a complete listing of upcoming fairs by visiting our College Fair Map.
Many of the fairs have registration deadlines and fees. However, if you are interested in covering the fair we can make contact with the organizer to ask about late registration. Confirmation of the fair along with the materials for the program will be sent to you prior to the program.
All volunteers must be trained before representing Ohio University at a college fair program.
Online Chats
Undergraduate Admission invites alumni to answer questions during online chats for admitted students about your alma mater, experiences as a student and the preparation Ohio University provided for your career and life after college. Online chats are an opportunity for admitted students to “chat” electronically with current Ohio University students, admission advisors and alumni about academics and campus life. One of the biggest questions posed to current students and alumni is why they chose to attend Ohio University. This is an important time to communicate with admitted students since they may still be deciding which institution they will attend.
Participating in online chats is extremely easy. All you need is access to the internet and 1 to 2 hours of your time. Those volunteers willing to participate in a chat event should contact the appropriate territory representative for further assistance on how to log on and what to expect during the chat.
Future Bobcats
Do you know a high school student from your neighborhood, church, or family? We encourage you to send us names of prospective students who may be interested in Ohio University. Visit www.ohio.edu/admissions/contact/ send us the names of prospective students. Once we receive the student’s name we will add them to our mailing list and send them information.
Campus Visitation Programs
We invite alumni to assist with special visitation programs. If you are interested in assisting with a program please contact Kevin Witham at witham@ohio.edu or 740-593-4116.
