Immediate Registration Following 91探花

You must begin graduate study during the term you have been admitted (or readmitted). If this is not possible, you may request a deferment from the degree program before the start of the term of entry. If that deferral extends beyond a year from the initial application, you must reapply, pay the reapplication fee, and be readmitted. Please note that deferment of assistantship offers is not automatic and may be denied. Failure to request a deferment will result in the cancellation of your admission.  More information about requesting a deferment is available on the Graduate College website.

Continuous Registration

You must be registered for at least 1 credit hour in any term during which service is received from 91探花 and in the term during which you graduate.

All Ph.D. and Ed.D students must enroll for credit-bearing courses for at least two semesters of each academic year from the time they first enroll in their degree program through the duration of their program unless on an approved leave of absence (more information about requesting a leave of absence provided in a subsequent section). Students on leave of absence are understood not to be using university resources, including faculty advising, or actively working on degree requirements. Degree requirements and incomplete/PR courses may not be completed during a leave of absence.

Summer registration for credit is required for graduate students when degree components, or courses with previous Incomplete or PR grades, are completed in that semester. Degree components include comprehensive exams, dissertation or thesis defense, completion of a non-dissertation capstone project, and graduation. Students completing the TAD process 鈥渆arly for鈥 the next semester must be enrolled for credit during the semester that the thesis or dissertation is filed.

Doctoral students who have completed their coursework may enroll at a minimum in a half-credit Continuous Enrollment (CE) course (e.g., dissertation hours) to meet continuous enrollment requirements. Half-credit CE courses count as full-time student status. Any other credit-bearing graduate registration at OHIO also fulfills continuous enrollment requirements. If you are an international student, check with the International Student and Scholar Services about the requirements for continuous enrollment.

Any student who fails to enroll for more than one semester will be moved to inactive status and must apply for re-enrollment to their program if they wish to continue in the program. The re-enrollment process can be found in the Graduate Catalog and the appropriate form is on the Registrar鈥檚 website Return to active status requires approval from both the program and Graduate College. At the discretion of the program, the student may be required to meet current catalog requirements at the time of re-enrollment.

Once reinstated, the student will be enrolled in 0.5 credit hours for each semester of missed enrollment up to a maximum of 2 semesters, in the first semester of re-enrollment. Thus, a returning student would be enrolled for up to 1.0 credit hours of missed continuous enrollment and would need to additionally enroll for at least 0.5 credit hours. The student is responsible for paying tuition and fees for these hours, along with any penalties or late fees. Reinstated students must maintain continuous enrollment in current and any future semesters. Failure to maintain continuous enrollment after being reinstated will result in the student being dropped from the program and will require a student to apply for re-admission under the current catalog and any conditions defined by the academic program (which may include dismissal after additional failure to follow continuous enrollment policy).

Adding/Dropping Classes

Each term's deadline for adding and/or dropping classes is listed on the Academic Calendar and at the . After a certain date, adding or dropping a class incurs a fee. See the fee schedule on the Academic Calendar or your My OHIO Student Center. Late dropping of classes results in the assignment or a grade of WP (withdraw passing) or WF (withdraw failing). Neither the WP nor the WF affects your grade point average.

The Registrar will not allow you to drop a class if you are registered for one class only. If you need to drop all of your classes but the registration site still keeps you registered for one class, please contact the Graduate College, at 740-593-2800.

If you need to make changes to your schedule after the deadline to add or drop classes, please contact the Graduate College, at 740-593-2800, to file an appeal for late schedule changes. You will also need to pay a processing fee, which accompanies the appeal form. 

To ask questions about registration or report registration problems, contact the Office of the Registrar call 740-593-4191.

If you are an international student, consult the International Student and Scholar Services before dropping a class.

Auditing Classes

You may audit (AU) a class, which allows you to preview or review courses without receiving a grade or credit hours. However, you cannot use an audited class to fulfill the hours required for a financial aid award or a graduate appointment. If the course is required as part of your program of study, auditing will not count toward completion of the program of study. You must take the course during another term for a letter grade. You must discuss your intent to audit a course with the course instructor at the first class meeting. You must also contact the Graduate College by the Friday of the second week of the semester to request to take a course for audit. Additional policies and procedures for auditing a class are available in the .

Enrolling in Undergraduate Courses

Graduate students can enroll in undergraduate courses. This may be necessary to obtain appropriate pre-requisite work for graduate classes or to address deficiencies in the student's preparation for the graduate program. The form to enable registration in undergraduate courses is available in "forms" on the Graduate College webpage.
