Introduction
Welcome to Actuarial Club of Ohio State webpage! The primary goal of the Actuarial Club is to inform students about the actuarial profession and to facilitate networking between students and company representatives. We have several companies come to give presentations to the club during the autumn semester, and often these companies are looking for interns or full-time hires. Here, you will find a calendar with a schedule of events, answers to some FAQ’s, and contact information for faculty and our club officers. Fill out this form if you are interested in joining the Actuarial Club. Feel free to contact any of them if you have any questions that aren’t answered on this webpage.
