Ohio University

At OHIO, if you have completed less than 2 years of university-level courses after high school graduation you are required to live in campus residence halls. To confirm your plans to enroll in classes you should submit a housing contract. International students may request to defer paying the housing deposit by e-mailing housing@ohio.edu.

Students who meet certain criteria may apply for an exemption to this policy. Students who are not required to live on campus may still apply for housing.

For students required to live on campus, submission of the housing contract and deposit (or commuter application) confirms your intent to enroll at OHIO. For other students, submission of the final transcript confirms your intent to enroll. There is no deadline to accept your Ohio University admission offer.

Our beautiful, historic, residential campus provides an environment where students of diverse backgrounds live and learn together, build friendships and share their ideas and perspectives. More than 7,400 students live in our 42 residence halls and dine in our award-winning campus eateries.
