Ohio University is a Carnegie Foundation R1 (doctoral universities – very high research activity) institution. It has a rich history, diverse campuses, international communities, and beautiful Appalachian settings. The city of Athens provides a classic and vibrant residential learning environment for over 20,000 students and is a family-friendly and culturally-rich community.
