Taking Classes on another Campus

Regional Students taking classes in Oxford
Regional students who want to take classes in Oxford will complete either the Permission to Register for courses on the Oxford campus or the Change of Campus to Oxford form on the Change of Campus webpage. Regardless if you intend to change your campus fully or take only some classes, Regional campus students must meet the minimum criteria:
- Complete at least 16 graded credit hours from Miami University Regionals in 100+ level courses (NOT including College Credit Plus, AP, CLEP, credit/no-credit, ACE courses or transfer credits). Winter term grades are not posted until after spring semester starts and do not count towards spring permission to register in Oxford
- Achieve a cumulative GPA not less than 2.0
- Have an acceptable conduct record
- English Language Center(ELC) students must complete ENG108 at their home campus before taking any Oxford classes
- Though they may take Oxford classes in the same semester they complete ENG109, ELC students must take ENG109 on their home campus
It is important to begin the Change of Campus process early to allow plenty of time for processing. For Fall Semester or Summer Term, request by mid-March. For Spring Semester or Winter Term, request by mid-October. If you want a major from an Oxford division, please have a Regional academic advisor help you declare it so you connect with the appropriate advisor in Oxford. Regional students do NOT need to do a Change of Campus to take classes on the Hamilton, Middletown or VOA campuses, as these are all in the Regional system. Regional students can take up to half of any semester's credit hours in Oxford and remain a Regional campus student, paying Regional tuition and fees.
Oxford Students taking Regional classes
Oxford students who want to take some classes on the Regional campuses but remain Oxford-based students may register for most Regional classes without special permission, but will be charged the Oxford tuition and fees for Regional courses (unless they Change their Campus in full to the Regionals). Regional online courses are restricted for Oxford students until one month before the start of the Fall and Spring semesters. Some Regional online classes are always restricted for Oxford students unless they have a Regional major, minor, or Thematic Sequence.
Oxford students who have a declared College of Liberal Arts and Applied Sciences (CLAAS) major, minor or Thematic Sequence should complete the Permission to Register form to request access to the Regional courses they need during their assigned Oxford Time Ticket. The student's degree audit will be checked to verify a CLAAS major, minor or Thematic Sequence, and the student will have a Regional Time Ticket added. If the course is closed, the student may be instructed to join the BannerWeb waitlist or use the ROR system.
Oxford students who want to take all their credits at the Regional campus request a full Change of Campus on the One Stop form. When the form is processed, the student's campus will change and they will be issued a Regional Time Ticket. Oxford students who change their campus for Winter or Summer term will revert back to Oxford campus student status after the term. Oxford students who change their campus for Fall or Spring semester will need to do another Change of Campus form to take Oxford classes in a future semester.
Please read through the information about taking courses on another Miami campus before submitting the Change of Campus form.
Change of Campus or Permission to Register Process for Regional Students
Permission to Register
Sometimes called a "partial change of campus," this option allows Regional students to take up to half of their credit hours in Oxford while taking at least half of their credit hours at the Regional campuses and paying Regional rates. You may request permission to register for more classes than you sign up for, in case Oxford classes fill before your Time Ticket opens. When your form is processed, you'll receive an email to your Miami email account from regOneStop@miamiOH.edu confirming your permission to register and containing information about your Oxford Time Ticket. You will then sign up for Oxford classes on your own through BannerWeb. Note that your Regional Time Ticket and Oxford Time Ticket may be different.
Full Change of Campus
This option is for students who wish to take all or the majority of their credit hours on the Oxford campus. A full change of campus means you will be advised by Oxford departmental advisors and pay Oxford tuition rates and student fees. When you fill out the form, you'll get an email confirmation. If you have met the requirements to change your campus, you may have certain holds placed on your account that prevent registration. You must resolve these holds in order to register for classes!
- ISSS hold: This hold is placed on international student records. International students must update their I-20 record before they can register for classes. Contact Maria Potter at potterm@MiamiOH.edu for more information.
- Medical hold: This hold is placed on the record of any student who requires medical documentation. The medical hold prevents future term registration, not the term the student change of campus takes effect (e.g., students changing campus to Oxford for Fall 2023 semester can register for Fall courses, but would have a hold preventing registration for Spring 2024 registration until medical documentation is submitted).
Beginning July 1, 2022, we no longer place an advising hold on students who change their campus, but we strongly suggest you connect with an academic advisor in the division that houses your major. Contact information for Oxford advisors is listed below.
If you applied for a Change of Campus to Oxford and were denied, but since then have met the requirements or will meet the requirements at the end of the current semester, please email regadvising@MiamiOH.edu and ask to be provisionally approved for your Change of Campus application.
