Special Visit Programs
There are so many ways to get a sneak peak into the life at Ohio University! If you're a prospective first-year student, transfer student, or high-achieving high school senior, there's a visit program for you. We also have the OHIO Overview program, which provides an opportunity for us to come to or near your hometown so you can learn all about how you can become a Bobcat.
Daily Campus Visits
OHIO is now offering multiple in-person campus visit options for freshman and transfer students. To keep you and our Bobcat community safe, registration is required for campus visits, and all visitors are required to follow OHIO's COVID-19 safety protocols, which include masks/face coverings and social distancing indoors.
If you're not able to visit in person, we are also offering many virtual visit opportunities, and virtual tours.
Tour Guides
Ohio University's tour guides are eager to share their experiences and love for the beautiful Athens Campus with prospective students. Tour guides are scholars, athletes, and leaders who are passionate about OHIO. Visit campus to meet them and learn why!
Every campus visit includes a walking tour where you can hear from current student tour guides as they share key campus information and their personal perspectives on their Forever OHIO experience.
Hear from Our Students
From the first time they walk the bricks on Ohio University's beautiful and historic Athens campus and for the rest of their lives, Bobcats treasure their time here.
