Review Your Class Schedule - Fall Semester 2026-27

Subject: Review Your Class Schedule - Fall Semester 2026-27

Dear Bobcat:

You are receiving this email because you are registered for Fall Semester 2026-27 classes at Ohio University. Please check MyOHIO Student Center or Go OHIO to review your class schedule. If you are not attending Ohio University this fall semester and are still enrolled for classes, please contact your academic college or student services office.

The deadline dates listed later in this message are for classes that meet the standard dates for fall semester. However, many students (especially those enrolled in OHIO Online programs) take classes that meet during different dates from the standard fall semester dates. Therefore, it is important to check the add/drop/withdraw dates for each course you are registered to take during fall semester. These dates will vary on a class-by-class basis and may be different from those listed below.

To find specific deadline dates, such as the last day to drop or last day to withdraw, select the calendar icon in your weekly schedule in MyOHIO Student Center. Deadlines are 5:00 p.m. Eastern on the date indicated (unless otherwise noted). However, online transactions may be processed beyond 5:00 p.m. Eastern if the system is available.

Reminder for Undergraduate students: The “standard” course load is 15 hours. You will need to be enrolled in 15 hours per semester on average to graduate within four years for a baccalaureate degree or two years for an associate degree. Please contact your success advisor, your academic college or student services office, or Allen Advising if you need assistance with choosing additional appropriate courses.

Best wishes for a successful fall semester,

Bob Bulow
Assistant Vice President for Student Information Strategy and University Registrar
Ohio University
