Telephone, Cellular, and Cable TV Services

What telephone and cable TV services are provided in university residence halls or apartments?

If you sign a housing contract with Student Affairs for an undergraduate residence hall room or apartment on the Columbus campus, you automatically receive the following standard telephone and cable TV services through OIT:

  • Local telephone service with a direct-dial telephone number, free campus and local calling capabilities, and 911 access to University Police
  • Caller ID and call waiting
  • Basic cable TV service with more than 70 channels

NOTE: Students provide their own telephone and television equipment.

If you sign a contract with Student Affairs to live in a graduate, professional, or family housing location on the Columbus campus, you will receive most of these standard services or have the option to order them. University-owned housing at Mansfield, Newark, and Wooster ATI regional campuses also offers similar telephone and cable TV services as part of their housing contracts. Visit units.osu.edu or call 614-688-HELP for more details.
