What are next steps after I submit my application?

Answer

After a student submits a completed Academy application, it will take time to be uploaded into the system, evaluated by the admissions committee and a decision posted. Students may monitor the status of the application process through appstatus.osu.edu.

All applicants should activate their OSU username and password at my.osu.edu after receiving a confirmation email (within 5 days of applying.) This email will include your OSU ID and Ohio State username (lastname.#). 

Once the Ohio State username is activated, students can then access their Applicant Center at appstatus.osu.edu to check on the Application Status and To Do List. 

If your application status is incomplete, the Applicant Center will specify what is missing. Remember that it can take up to 10 days for submitted items to be processed and matched to the correct application.
