Campus Simplified

Our mission

Over the years one of the most important things we’ve learned is that navigating Ohio State is intimidating and anxiety inducing for many new to the University. Our goal is to reduce friction and act as a unified front door for the most important touchpoints at OSU.

Our model

Our team creates applications with these core tenants at the forefront of everything that we do:

  • Securely gather the most important information all in one place
  • Put users first
  • Meet expectations for quality
  • Refine constantly
  • Make Ohio State accessible to all
  • Change campus for the better

The Ohio State app

The Ohio State app as it was in 2011

What started as small collaboration between a few departments on campus soon became a vital part of the fabric of the University. The first version of the Ohio State app was released in 2011 and our team continues to iterate to better support our community.


Download the app for iOS and Android.
