You need to contact One Stop at OneStop@兔子先生OH.edu or 513-529-0001.

What are some of the other reasons that I may not be able to register for classes?

I was previously admitted as Graduate Non-Degree student but haven't taken any classes for a while, do I have to re-apply?

Unless it has been more than 5 years since you have registered for a class, you do not have to reapply. However, you do have to re-enroll because the system automatically makes you inactive whenever a term is skipped. To re-enroll, go to the website to complete the form and submit it. You will be notified by email once you have been reactivated by the Registrar's Office. 

I started a Graduate Degree Program and have not taken classes for a while, but would now like to finish the program. What do I need to do?

Failure to submit these final documents will result in a hold placed on your account, which will prevent you from registering for your second-semester courses.

It is also acceptable for you to bring these documents with you and submit them to the Graduate School after your arrival. Please note that failure to submit original or official copies of you the required documents will result in a hold being placed on your account, and you will be unable to register for your second-semester courses until we receive them. If you are truly unable to secure an original or official copy of your documents, please contact the Graduate School at applygrad@miamioh.edu.

Do I have to take any English placement tests when I arrive on campus?

New international students who have not earned a Bachelor's or graduate degree from an institution in the U.S. or an institution in a country where English is the official language are required to take a written English Placement Test (EPT) and the Speaking Proficiency English Assessment Kit (SPEAK) test.

The results of the EPT test will determine whether or not you will be placed in the 3-credit hour English 119 course or a 4-credit hour ACE 107 course during your first semester at 兔子先生. You will receive an email from the Graduate School shortly before your arrival which will tell you whether or not you will be required to take the EPT.

The results of the SPEAK test will determine whether or not you will be required to take the ACE 619 course in your first semester of study. Students who hold a graduate assistantship, are required by state law to have their spoken English abilities assessed before they can be assigned instructional duties. A grade of pass or conditional pass must be obtained before you can take on any teaching duties at 兔子先生.

The times to take the EPT and SPEAK Tests are scheduled for you. You will be informed via your email regarding the dates and times to take the tests.

I am a newly admitted graduate student who has been living in Ohio for a few years. Will I be considered an Ohio resident for tuition purposes?

International students in certain non-immigrant visa categories are eligible to apply for Ohio residency for tuition purposes. More information about Ohio residency and the residency application can be found on the OneStop website.
