Apparently Ohio State has just decided that they will not accept international students. My friend received a secondary but immediately had his file closed and an email was sent indicating their new restrictions effective immediately.

I completed my secondary at the beginning of September and I emailed them specifically to ask if they accept international students. I have the email (from Lorna Kenyon) saved saying that they do! WTF!?! My application/file is still active. What is going to happen? The fees are non-refundable...

do a search for posts by WENDS on sdn. apparently she is from canada and had gone through the interview process and everything only to be told that they are not taking internationals. they refunded her interview expenses. they should refund your fees under the circumstances. call them and let us know what happens!
 
Ack. I hope they pay me for the AMCAS fee, secondary fee, courier fee for sending my LORs. That's $200+ CD.
