Campus Change
You've built a strong foundation. With a transition to Columbus, you're ready to complete a bachelor's degree.
How it works
Many ATI programs — especially Associate of Science degrees — are designed to complete the first half of a bachelor’s degree.
After your time at ATI, you’ll transition to the Columbus campus to finish your major.
Your path to Columbus
Meet with your academic advisor to:
- choose the right courses
- stay on track for your major
- understand your timeline
To transition campuses, you typically need:
- at least 30 completed credit hours
- a minimum 2.0 cumulative GPA
Some majors may require higher standards.
You’ll complete a Campus Change Request through ATI Academic Affairs.
Before scheduling classes, you’ll:
- meet with your ATI advisor
- connect with an advisor in your intended major
This helps ensure your courses apply to your degree.
(Hint: You can connect with an advisor through your program card in the Majors search tool)
Once approved, you’ll and begin taking classes on the Columbus campus.
What to expect
- You remain an Ohio State student
- Your credits move with you (based on your major)
- Your experience shifts to a larger campus environment
