Founded in 1957, the Ohio University Eastern Campus has been serving the Ohio Valley for more than 55 years. Located in St. Clairsville, the Eastern Campus offers 12 bachelor’s degree programs and access to the first two years of any of OHIO’s 250 degree programs. With an average class size of 15 students, an average tuition rate of $5,000 per year and six intercollegiate sports, the Eastern Campus offers the benefits and education of a premiere research university while maintaining the personal attention associated with a smaller, exclusive college.
Ohio University Eastern is a critical gateway to education for residents of the Ohio River Valley and over the past several years we have seen our enrollments rise. We serve an average of 1,000 undergraduate students each year, and in the past ten years more than 900 students have received bachelor’s degrees from Ohio University Eastern.
To ensure a strong future, we must invest in our students. Well-trained workers and leaders are the key to a brighter future in our region and in Ohio. In 2011, the Eastern Campus awarded more than $1.6 million in scholarships, grants and work-study opportunities, but that is not nearly enough to sustain our growing enrollments. With dwindling state support and the economy at a turning point, now is the time to expand our initiatives and drive the economic engine in our area.
With your support, we seek to expand student access and opportunity, cultivate the academic experience, and strengthen community outreach and partnerships.
