Policies at Ohio State

The University Policies website is furnished to provide convenient access to university-wide policies and rules. It is the responsibility of all individuals to identify and familiarize themselves with all applicable university and unit policies.

Individual units may maintain additional policies applying only to that unit, that are not in conflict with university-wide policies. Such policies do not override university-wide policies and are often available on unit websites.

For guidance on developing or revising a university-wide policy, click on the Policy Development tab above.
