Welcome!

Congratulations on your admission to The Ohio State University College of Nursing!  This resource supports students entering the Traditional BSN program in Autumn. If you have questions, please reach out to con-advising@osu.edu.

Orientation and Important Dates

All BSN students are required to attend orientation, compliance, and Lighting of the Lamp sessions.

Compliance Touchpoint

This session provides an in-depth overview of Compliance requirements and time to answer questions related to compliance.  Students should not wait until this meeting to begin their compliance requirements. Please do not complete the background check requirement early, this will be discussed at the session and will be completed the first week of class.

Accommodations

If you require an accommodation such as live captioning or interpretation to participate in the events above please contact the Office of Student Affairs at nursing@osu.edu or 614-292-4041. Requests made two weeks in advance of the event will generally allow us to provide seamless access, but the university will make every effort to meet requests made after this date.
