Online Forms

During Spring 2020, the Change of Basis form was moved online.  The Office of the Registrar aims to take an intentional approach to move additional forms online so users have a similar user experience across all Registrar forms.  We aim to set clear expectations for workflows, reduce confusion for participants involved, and use a 21st Century approach to the current processes.

Auto Prerequisite Drops

The Registrar’s Office needs an automated method of finding and dropping students from classes due to an unmet prerequisite.  The student should be emailed via Form Fusion to notify them of the schedule change after the drop occurs. 

Athletics, INTO OSU, and International Programs should be notified if one of their students are removed from a course. Head advisors will need to be notified so they can communicate with their advisors and students impacted.

Transfer Equivalency Self Service

To support overall enrollment, and student retention projects on campus, we are adopted a more streamlined transfer equivalency service. The tool is the Transfer Equivalency Self Services by ellucian (TESS). This is a module within Degree Works.

This provides an easy solution for prospective, current students to look up courses, degrees, and test scores that would transfer to OSU and to view their equivalence at OSU.

DUO All Students

As part of the university transition to DUO multifactor authentication, our office collaborated with Identity Management to transition students, in various cohorts, over to DUO. The first student cohorts were transitioned in October 2019 and all students were using DUO February 2020.
