Forms

Research and request a class drop (form)

Current University Exploration students seeking to drop a class within the University's drop deadlines can use this form to request their drop. In the process, students will be asked to research any potential consequences on financial aid, housing contract, etc. for their drop. Students seeking to drop a class after the drop deadline may consult our guidelines on Petitions to University Exploration.

Please note: drop requests from students outside University Exploration and requests after the University deadline will not be processed.

Grade forgiveness

Students can file a Grade Forgiveness petition and with permission from their college, repeat a course they have already taken. Both grades will remain on the transcript and will be counted in calculating grade-point average. Only the credit hours for one attempt will be counted toward the total hours required for your degree.

Student financial aid

The 2024-25 Satisfactory Academic Progress appeal form can be used by students who do not currently meet SAP standards. Note: students who submit a SAP appeal do not learn whether an appeal is successful until after the 100% refund period in the semester so students who submit this form need to have alternative means to pay for their academic term.

A consortium agreement form can be used to combine Ohio State courses with course(s) from another institution and be able to use one's Ohio State Financial Aid package on both. Note: Consortium Agreements are only appropriate and possible in very specific situations. Please consult with Buckeye Link as a first step in researching the possibility of a consortium agreement.
