Policy Updates and Browser Cache

Many policies have been updated across Business and Finance, including minor revisions and substantive changes. Some people have reported seeing outdated policy documents due to information being saved in their web browser history. The policies.osu.edu site will show the last edit date of the policies, and the document that you view should have the same revision/edit date (found at the very bottom of the policy).

If you see an outdated revision, please use the steps listed below as a guide to clear old information from the browser.
