Preview Day

Preview Day is an event held just before the academic year begins, designed for transfer, campus change and first-time commuter students. The event helps incoming students connect with campus resources and meet fellow students.

The day includes a variety of presentations, activities and a resource fair, along with plenty of chances to meet and interact with peers. Key topics covered include transportation logistics, strategies for getting involved in campus life and a little Ohio State trivia to kick things off with some Buckeye spirit. Lunch and prizes for students are included too!
