Buckeye Visit Days are perhaps the best way to get a comprehensive overview of Ohio State Newark. Your visit will include an admissions overview, faculty interviews and a chance to learn more about financial aid and scholarships, student clubs and organizations, learning communities, housing, study abroad, honors and much more. The event will conclude with guests taking a guided tour of campus with a student or an admissions professional, or you can tour campus on your own — it's up to you!
Apply to The Ohio State University at Newark for free! First-year applicants will receive an application fee waiver to apply for autumn 2025 as well as support through the application process from our admission staff. This event is drop-in style, so we recommend that you arrive no later than 5 p.m. to ensure that you have ample time to fill out your application and learn about next steps.
To align with our mission of affordability and accessibility, we're covering the $60 application fee for first-year applicants who apply directly to a regional campus between Oct. 1 and Dec. 1. Our regional campuses are already dedicated to providing Ohio students and families with an excellent college education at one of the lowest tuition rates in the state.
Just enter fee waiver code RCW2025 when prompted in the online application to your regional campus of choice by Dec. 1 for these big benefits:
This fee waiver code is exclusively available for first-year applicants to an Ohio State regional campus in Lima, Mansfield, Marion or Newark, or ATI in Wooster. Note: If you’re planning to apply to the Columbus campus, you should submit the Common Application and not an application to a regional campus.
