Patton College of Education Newly Admitted Online Students

Congratulations on being accepted into our online programs. Now that you have been admitted, please follow the instructions below to get started. You will also receive an email with further registration instructions. If you have any questions, please contact Lisa. S. Dael at dael@ohio.edu.

Activate your OHIO ID

If you have not attended Ohio University before, you will need to activate your OHIO ID using the PID/Campus ID number (P#######) you received from the Graduate College with your official acceptance letter. If you have questions about your PID/Campus ID or OHIO ID, please call the Service Desk at 740.593.1222 .

Register for courses

Please review your Program of Study so you know which courses to enroll in for this term. If you have questions, contact your advisor. You should receive an email message when it is time to register to explain the enrollment process.  If you do not receive this email or have issues enrolling, please get in touch with Lisa S. Dael, Director of Technology and Online Programs in the Patton College of Education at  dael@ohio.edu  for assistance.

If you attempt to enroll for a class and get a message saying you have not met the prerequisite or that permission is required, you should select the "Request Permission" link. This process replaces the green slipping process and will allow you to make an electronic request to the instructor to get into the class. For further instructions watch this video: How to request permission for a class.

If you are not sure which courses you should enroll in please contact your advisor. For problems registering, please send a screenshot to Lisa S. Dael dael@ohio.edu so she can assist you.

Log into Blackboard or Canvas

Once you have registered for classes, you will be able to access Blackboard or Canvas. You may need to wait a couple of hours before you can log in for the first time. Your courses will NOT show up in your course list until the instructor makes them available to you. You will use your OHIO ID and password to log in. 

Textbooks

Please check the Course Listings for textbooks.  Please feel free to purchase your textbooks from wherever you choose. We do not require you to purchase from a specific vendor.  If you have questions about your materials, please reach out to the instructor of the class.
