Graduate and Professional Student Involvement and Resource Fair

Friday, August 29, 2025
Ohio Union Archie M. Griffin Grand Ballroom (2nd Floor)
4 p.m. - 7 p.m.

Held during the first week of the Autumn Semester, also known as Welcome Week, The Graduate and Professional Student Involvement and Resource Fair is an annual program designed to connect all graduate and professional students with information and opportunities for involvement, campus services, and core resources. Dozens of student organizations, campus departments, and other partners gather to share information and answer questions. This is a drop-in event that is also partnered with the Graduate and Professional Student Picnic. All attending will have the chance to mingle with various booths, eat delicious food, and participate in activities during the event from 4-7 p.m.

Please note that this event is NOT the same event as the Student Involvement Fair, which is the campus-wide event showcasing more than 800 booths on Sunday, August 24 from 4-7 p.m. on the Oval/South Oval. The Graduate and Professional Fair is a separate program with booths and activities curated specifically for graduate and professional students.

Booth registration is now open for the annual Graduate and Professional Involvement Fair and Picnic on Friday, August 29, 2025 from 4:00 p.m. - 7:00 p.m. in the Archie M. Griffin Ballroom in the Ohio Union. This event is an opportunity to showcase your organization, services or opportunities to the graduate and professional student population at Ohio State. The deadline to sign up is Thursday, July 31 at 11:59 p.m.

Co-sponsored by the Graduate School
