This form is available from January 02 to April 30 annually. Outside of this timeframe, Pre-Design Petitions are not accepted. This web form is for all Non-Freshman Students who would like to enter a Department of Design Major through a path other than as an incoming first year student. These students must petition the department for consideration for a Department of Design Pre-Major. Completion of this petition form also acknowledges your understanding that admittance to the first-year foundation course sequence DOES NOT guarantee admission to a Design Major, just the opportunity to compete for one through the undergraduate review process described on the department website. Pre-Design Petitions are reviewed annually during the month of May. Results will be announced via email by the last work day of May to the email address listed below. A Note for OSU Regional Campus Students:Please note that regional campus students should also be working with their current advisor to become main campus students for the upcoming autumn term.A Note for High School Students:High School Students who would like to be considered for a Department of Design Pre-Major should NOT use this form.
