Process Time: Please allow 5-7 business days for processing.

Readmission is at the same student level, college and academic program when you were last enrolled. If you wish to change your academic program after you have been readmitted, you must meet with an advisor to request a program change. See the Academic Advising page to find an advisor by college.
If you attended other institutions while away from OSU, send your official transcript from each college or university to OSU Office of Admissions.
If your application for readmission has been approved and you do not enroll in classes for that term, you will be placed in an inactive status and need to apply for readmission again (including the $25 application fee) for the term you wish to return.
Students occasionally take time off from their coursework for a variety of reasons. Check in with your academic advisor for guidance on any steps you may need to follow to ensure a smooth return to OSU. If you are away for four or more terms (not including summer), you are placed in an inactive status and unable to register for courses – follow the steps outlined above for applying for readmission.
Check in with Financial Aid for any information about your financial aid award.
Yes, when a student withdraws from all their classes on or after the first day of the term, this indicates registration exists and counts as an enrollment attempt. This applies to undergraduates/non-degree undergraduates and postbacc students.
