New Prices! Ohio State faculty, students, and staff can now save $10 or more per month for Internet, cable, and phone subscriptions through the WOW! Internet, Cable and Phone Affinity Program.
To receive the monthly discount, faculty, students, or staff must authenticate through a special OIT phone line at 614-292-7100 to verify enrollment and/or employment with OSU. The discount is available to current and new OSU WOW! subscribers.
Current WOW! subscribers who want to receive OSU Affinity Program
