Add Value to Your OSU Experience  August 28th, 2014

Regardless of major, all OSU students have choices to make relative to the Bacc Core. We want you to make informed choices that add value to your OSU experience. By expanding the range of ideas you encounter, instructors within the Bacc Core hope to aid in your ability to understand and make meaning of the world in all its many facets. The structure and requirements of the Bacc Core may not be immediately clear to new students. To this end, we suggest you visit the new Bacc Core website to learn more about this important aspect of your OSU education. We have also put together a number of thematic Bacc Core Playlists that provide an optional way for you to shape your Baccalaureate Core experience around your interests and career goals. Take a few minutes to consider the Bacc Core Playlists ahead of your next advising appointment and then ask your advisor about how to fit those ideas in with your overall academic plans or options.

Do you buy coffee on your way to class in the morning? Like to eat a meal on campus instead of carting around your lunch every day? Maybe you just need that energy drink to get you through a late night study session? Well, why not get 10% off all your purchases at OSU’s 27 campus restaurants, coffee shops, and markets? Sign up for Orange Rewards and start saving every time you eat on campus.

Orange Rewards is easy to sign up for online. It requires an initial deposit of $100 into your account, but after that you can add money anytime, anywhere in any amounts of $25 and up. Your account stays active as long as you are a student so you don’t even have to worry about using up all your funds before the end of the year!

If you are living on campus your meal plan comes with $100 in Orange Rewards, and you can add more at any time.  If you are living off campus, you can add on Orange Rewards at any time to use on campus.
