O-Zone
is your personal, customizable portal to Otterbein's
Intranet. Logon to your O-Zone page to access links
to all other resources and no need to logon separately.
It is single sign-on! See all your personal information
and keep current on Otterbein news.IMPORTANT
NOTICE: New and Returning students may not automatically
have an OZone account upon activating your network account.
This is a known issue and will be fixed very soon. In
the interim...you may access the very same resources
as all students by navigating via www.otterbein.edu
and using the A-Z index to go to each system such as
Banner, webmail, etc...directly. This affects students
who are admitted but not taking a class the very next
quarter. (e.g. admitted Winter quarter and not taking
a class until Summer quarter) |
