Prospective Student Support

The College of Allied Health offers three main services for prospective students: Transcript Evaluations, Group Information Sessions, and Individual Advising Support.

Transcript Evaluation

Prospective students interested in having their transcript(s) reviewed against program prerequisites and GPA requirements should email ahinfo@ouhsc.edu with a copy of their transcript(s) and the program they are seeking. Include any additional pertinent information, such as planned future coursework or degrees you are pursuing, as well as any general questions you might have. A team member from the Office of Student Affairs will review your information and respond with their findings and any pertinent guidance. Evaluations are typically completed within a week of receipt.

Group Information Sessions

These sessions provide an overview of the college, general application tips, and the opportunity to ask questions about programs and requirements. They are held virtually over Zoom for an hour. The college offers general information sessions that will talk broadly about programs and requirements, as well as more dedicated application workshops to answer questions that have arisen during the process of completing your application.

Prospective students can register for these sessions by using our Bookings page, with more sessions being added as cycles progress. If you are unable to find a session that works for your schedule, please reach out to the Office of Student Affairs at ahinfo@ouhsc.edu and we will assist in finding an alternate time to meet.

Individual Advising Support

Individual questions and needed support should be sent to ahinfo@ouhsc.edu, and a team member will respond within 3 business days to assist. This includes questions regarding prerequisites, application deadlines, clarification on program requirements, and other pertinent items related to our programs. The team member may set up an appointment via phone, Zoom, or in-person if additional support is needed beyond what can be provided via email. Please provide as much detail in your communication to ensure we are able to provide the best support possible.

Campus and College Tours

Tours of the College of Allied Health are offered on an as-requested basis around the availability of team members. If you are interested in a tour of the College of Allied Health building, please contact ahinfo@ouhsc.edu with your request.
