My daughter was waitlisted and finally declined end of May. The problems that we never saw, although accepting regional campus - dorm is full, late orientation (which means potentially closed out of classes), no offer for football tickets! Have others who have been declined and accepted the waitlist dealt with this??? This was a huge disappointment and I feel so bad for her… The football tickets were most disappointing as we assured her she could get them being an OSU student.
My kids have been able to pick up an extra football ticket either by asking through their personal networks or through a student ticket exchange platform (they were flexible and willing to see any home game). The later in the season, the colder or wetter the expected weather the easier it is to get the student tickets. More become available a day or two before.
Also, “Ohio State students get in FREE to all Ohio State Athletic events, excluding Football and Men’s Basketball, by showing their BuckID!”
Men’s Basketball tickets go on sale Sept. 12, 4:00pm (online) http://www.ohiostatebuckeyes.com/sports/ticket-sales/spec-rel/student-ticket-home.html
Thank you for taking the time to answer.
