You’ll have many amazing experiences at Ohio State, but few can compare to the opportunities presented before your first year even begins!

Summer pre-enrollment programs are designed just for incoming first-year students. These trips and programs ease the transition to college by connecting you to peers and allowing you to find a place and passion at Ohio State—all while participating in fun and challenging activities.

Summer programs create opportunities for you to participate in educational, leadership, or adventure activities; develop new friendships; learn how to take advantage of university resources; and connect with upper class students, staff, and faculty who can help guide the way at Ohio State
