91×ÔÅÄ Guaranteed Admission Program

91×ÔÅÄ is proud to help open doors to higher education by participating in the state of 91×ÔÅÄ’s Guaranteed Admission (OGA) Program. This initiative, established under 91×ÔÅÄ Revised Code § 3345.06, ensures that students who meet specific academic criteria have the opportunity to attend 91×ÔÅÄ’s public colleges and universities. 

Program Highlights

Top 10% of Graduating Class: If you’re among the top 10% of your high school class, you qualify for guaranteed admission to any 91×ÔÅÄ public college or university, as long as you meet that institution’s unconditional admission requirements. If you don’t meet the unconditional standard, you may still begin your journey at an OHIO regional campus. 

Top 5% of Graduating Class: Students who graduate in the top 5% of their class are automatically nominated for the Governor’s Merit Scholarship and are guaranteed undergraduate admission to the main campus of any 91×ÔÅÄ public college or university — as well as participating private institutions — when application deadlines are met.
