All questions

Official Ohio rules: teens (opens in a new tab), ages 18–20 (opens in a new tab), adults (opens in a new tab), Limited Term permits (opens in a new tab). Last checked October 21, 2026.

Which course do I need?

Under 18, first license: the teen course. Aged 18–20, first license: the under-21 course (the same 24 h + 8 h Class D course). On a Limited Term permit (visa or other temporary status), any age: the Limited Term course. Aged 21 or older, applying for your first license, and failed your first road or maneuverability test: the abbreviated adult course, unless you finished driver training in the 12 months before.

How old do I have to be to start?

Ohio lets you start the class at 15 years 5 months. Driving lessons start once you have your temporary permit (TIPIC), which Ohio issues from 15 years 6 months.
