Latine Student Success

The Office of Diversity and Inclusion's Latine Student Success (LSS) team works to cultivate Latine-centered communities for academic, social, and professional support. The LSS team welcomes all students who want to engage with their peers in strengths-based leadership development and skill building with a Latine focus. Participate in collaborative and community-based projects, in mentoring or service activities, or just drop in to connect with us. The LSS team is here to serve students, staff, and faculty of the Ohio State.

Latine Early Arrival Program

Before the start of the autumn semester, the Latine EAP prepares first-year students for university life by providing educational and resourceful workshops, engaging presentations, and team-building activities. LSS programs use a strengths-based and culturally responsive approach to four core themes: academic success, empowerment, wellbeing, and service.
