If you are an Ohio resident who has never attended another college or university, you will be admissible to Ohio State ATI if you have graduated from a chartered high school and passed (or are exempt from) all sections of the Ohio Graduation Tests (OGT’s).
An applicant who has satisfactorily passed the General Educational Development (GED) tests and received an Ohio High School Equivalency Diploma through the Department of Education is considered the equivalent of a high school graduate.
If you are an Ohio resident who has graduated from a high school that is not chartered by the state of Ohio, you will be considered for admission through a competitive admission process. This process involves a review of your high school curriculum and your performance in that coursework.
