Assured freshman admission requirementsStudents qualify for assured admission if they meet ONE of the following criteria:
* OSU does not consider the essay component of the ACT/SAT for admission criteria listed above.
** 15-Unit Core Curricular Requirements: 4 units of English (Grammar, Composition and Literature); 3 units of Mathematics (Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra II and above); 3 units of History and Citizenship Skills (Must include 1 unit of American History and 2 units from the subjects of History, Economics, Geography, Government, Civics and/or Non-Western Culture); 3 units lab science (Biology, Chemistry, Physical Sciences, Physics or any lab science certified by school district) and 2 units of other courses selected from any of the sections above or computer science or foreign language.

Students who have been denied admission may appeal one time by submitting the Freshman
Admission Decision Appeal Petition. Students are strongly encouraged to submit all
updated academic information, including final high school transcripts, letters of
recommendation, and any additional ACT or SAT scores, before completing the petition.
The appeal petition and other application materials will be evaluated by the Admissions
Review Committee, and the student will be notified of the outcome within three business
days. In order to be considered, your petition must be submitted by noon the Thursday
prior to the start of the term for which you have applied. If you have questions about
the petition process, contact us at 405-744-5358.
