Ohio University comprises nine campuses, nine undergraduate colleges, a graduate college, a college of medicine, and a public affairs school. It offers more than 250 areas of undergraduate study[13] as well as certificates, master's, and doctoral degrees.[14] The university is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission[15] and classified among "R1: Doctoral Universities – Very high research activity".[16] As of Fall 2020, the university's total enrollment at Athens was slightly more than 18,000, while the all-campus enrollment was just over 30,000.[5]
