NOTE: OUR APOLOGIES BUT PENDLETON's COURSE (TCE599) LISTED ON THE FLYER HAS BEEN CANCELLED...ALL OTHER COURSES WILL RUN AS SCHEDULED

These courses are all graduate level courses and can be used to satisfy certification requirements. There are no pre-requisites for the off-campus courses, therefore courses can taken in any combination based on their scheduled dates.

You must be admitted to OSU (as an "active" or "non-degree seeking" student) before you can register. Students who have taken courses at OSU within the last 12 months should still have an "active" status. Charges for tuition/fees are posted to students' accounts and are due by August 1 at the earliest. 

Registration begins April 12 and continues until July 20, with room for 30 students in each class. Registration on or after July 20 may incur a late fee and lessens time allotments for reading applicable pre-course materials in preparation for the class(es).

Detailed information regarding the off-campus courses is available on the .PDF flyer located here on this page to the right.   Click the following link for information on the admission and registration processes.
