The Graduate School Handbook contains the rules, policies and guidelines applicable to the graduate community at The Ohio State University.

These rules, policies and guidelines are reviewed by the Graduate Council and approved by the Vice Provost for Graduate Studies and Dean of the Graduate School. It is regularly updated throughout the year as the Graduate Council makes or revises rules and guidelines.

All deadlines provided in this handbook are given in reference to the autumn and spring semesters calendar. For corresponding deadlines for May session, summer session and seven week sessions please refer to Appendix A, Academic Deadlines and to the website of the University Registrar.
