Re-enrolling Students

Re-enrolling Students General Information

Any student, including Veterans and U.S. Armed Forces members, may return to Ohio University at the same level and same academic program provided they had not been academically dismissed. A Veteran or U.S. Armed Forces member who may be temporarily unable to attend classes, or have to suspend their studies due to service requirements, may contact the Veterans and Military Student Services Center for assistance to work with faculty members within the current semester to decide the best course of action. Once the Veteran or U.S. Armed Forces member is able to return to classes they will be reinstated into the same program. If the academic program is no longer offered, Ohio University will work with the student to select an alternate program.
