OSU GRADUATE SCHOOL

Unlike many universities, the application process at Ohio State is a "decentralized" one, in which students apply through the Admissions Office, and through their specific program, NOT through the Graduate school. Generally, students send all of their application materials to the Graduate Admissions Office, which then forwards the completed application to the specific program. All questions concerning general admissions procedures should be directed to the Office of Admissions. For specific program requirements, contact the department in which you wish to conduct your graduate studies.

COLLEGE OF MEDICINE

The Ohio State University College of Medicine is the nation's fourth largest, and we consistently rank among the top academic medical schools in our commitment to training practicing physicians. But academic excellence is much more than a ranking. At the OSU College of Medicine, it is a spirit of community and camaraderie in which the professional values of compassion, collegiality, integrity, loyalty and hard work are shared fully among faculty and students. Our medical college is also well integrated with The Ohio State University, providing broad educational and social interactions.

RESEARCH FOUNDATION

Since 1936, the Research Foundation has been supporting researchers at OSU by providing pre and post award sponsored research services. By "building a foundation for world class research" through electronic research administration, responsible stewardship of funds, and sound management practices, the Research Foundation will continue to be an important partner in Ohio State's research endeavors.
