Why this school is an excellent choice for military members
Ohio University is working hard to increase and enhances its services for military members. Last September we created a new position, Coordinator of Veterans Academic Services. I serve as the central point of contact for our student veterans, but we also have established points of contact in most administrative departments. I communicate regularly with our students and also monitor their grades and enrollment. We are working to create a Veterans Lounge and are also creating an Orientation session for military members. We have come a long way over the past year and plan to continue to grow.
