STRS Ohio Services
One-on-One Counseling
It is advisable to schedule an individual counseling session at least three
years before you plan to retire and again six to 12 months from retirement.
This session can take place at our office in Columbus, at a field location near
your home or school, or by phone through an individual Teleconference.
The STRS Ohio TeleConference
The TeleConference is a convenient way for members to obtain an accurate benefit
estimate and information about retirement benefits. Through a TeleConference,
you can talk by phone with an STRS Ohio benefits counselor at no cost. TeleConference
appointments are available from 9 a.m.–8 p.m., Monday–Thursday during the school year, and 9
a.m.–4 p.m. Monday–Thursday during July and August. To schedule a TeleConference, call toll-free 1-888-227-7877.
Conference at the STRS Ohio Building
You may meet with a benefits counselor at the STRS Ohio Building in Columbus
from 8 a.m.–6 p.m., Monday–Thursday and 8 a.m.–5 p.m. Friday during the school year, and 8
a.m.–5 p.m. Monday–Friday during July and August. To make an appointment,
call STRS Ohio toll-free at 1-888-227-7877.
Conference Near a Member’s Home or School
STRS Ohio benefit counselors travel throughout Ohio to provide individual counseling
sessions at various locations. Six weeks before the conference in your area,
a notice regarding the date, location and appointment procedures will be sent
to you.
There are two ways to schedule your appointment:
Please note that online registration is available one day prior to
phone registration, and that sessions at most locations are scheduled
