Update

Ohio State is in the process of revising websites and program materials to accurately reflect compliance with the law. While this work occurs, language referencing protected class status or other activities prohibited by Ohio Senate Bill 1 may still appear in some places. However, all programs and activities will be administered in compliance with the law as of June 27, 2025.

Autumn Student Involvement Fair - August 24, 2025

Oval and South Oval

Held during Welcome Week, the first week of the Autumn Semester, hundreds of Ohio State student organizations, campus departments and local non-profits connect to share information about their opportunities for involvement. This is the first opportunity of the school year to chat with organization members and start thinking about how you will be involved outside of class. More information about the event and the list of participating organizations will be shared closer to the day of the event.

The Spring Student Involvement Fair takes place each year January, giving new and returning students an opportunity to explore more options for their involvement. Smaller and more intimate than the Student Involvement Fair held during the Fall Semester's Welcome Week, the Spring Student Involvement Fair gives students a perfect chance to meet people and learn about the great things Ohio State's student organizations are doing.

If you have questions about accessiblity or wish to request accommodations please contact the Student Involvement Fair Team at sifair@osu.edu, supported by Ohio Union and Student Activities. Typically, three weeks notice will allow us to meet your needs.
