Understand the Pathway Program Our International Year One Undergraduate Pathway programs combine intensive English language study, academic skills development and academic course work. They are carefully designed programs to help you through the first year of your undergraduate degree program. Joining our Pathway program will not extend the overall length of an undergraduate degree program. In fact, it will guarantee places in required courses, which may shorten the length of your program. Decide if the Program is Right for You The program is ideal for students who: • Want to earn a bachelor’s degree in the US • Desire additional academic, language and cultural support to excel at a US university • May need to improve English language skills • May have a lower GPA than required for direct admission to degree programs
Program Benefits • Guaranteed progression to an OSU undergraduate program upon successful completion of a Pathway program

4-Term Pathway Our new 4-term Pathway program is designed specially for international students who want to start earning credits toward their bachelor's degree at a US university while improving their English skills.
1-Term or 2-Term Pathway This accelerated option is designed for students who have good academic grades and need little or no English preparation. Students can begin this program during the fall, winter and spring terms.
Pathway Programs Pathway Program for Undergraduate Majors (All Programs)
Available in fall, winter and summer terms (depending on your major), this program offers more focus on English language preparation than our other Pathway programs. Students are able to begin their academic studies with domestic and other international students sooner than our traditional Academic English plus Pathway programs had allowed. 3-Term Pathway Our 3-Term Pathway program provides an excellent balance of academic and English language preparation. This is ideal for most students and has start dates available in fall, winter and spring terms (depending on your major).

Program Benefits • Up to 40 hours of TOEFL test preparation and GMAT/GRE preparation • Dedicated academic advisor and progression advisor to help facilitate transition to the university • Pathway peer tutors available to provide additional academic support • Assured and non-competitive progression to your masters program when you successfully complete the Graduate Pathway TOEFL, GMAT and GRE PREP TOEFL, GMAT and GRE test preparation are built into the Graduate Pathway program curriculum. You will receive up to 40 hours of test preparation throughout the duration of the program.
