END GAME: A FULFILLING CAREER
Our graduates make a difference all over the world. The Polar Careers office is a centralized operation, coordinating placement activities for full-time positions, internships and co-ops. This is just a small sample of where our students end up.
Absolute Placement
Of all the questions parents ask during the college search, “Will my student get a job?” is usually right at the top. It also happens to be the question Ohio Northern University admissions counselors like to answer most, because the numbers don’t lie. The University as a whole boasts a 96 percent undergraduate placement rate. This is well above the national average.
Thanks for being one of the reasons that I have a job! My dream company (EPIC in Madison, Wisc.) contacted me through your site! I'm thankful for all you've done for me and the campus.Kayla Hummel, BSME ’17
