Funding priorities

Scholarships and Fellowships

image The Ohio State University is committed to enrolling a diverse and talented student body; enhancing and better serving those students is a key strategy of the university's Academic Plan. Need and merit-based scholarships have become increasingly vital in the lives of our talented students, who in many cases require some form of financial aid to attend a four-year institution. As college costs continue to escalate, the necessity for need and merit-based aid for our students is ever greater. Offering ample need and merit-based financial aid through scholarships and fellowships provides educational opportunities to thousands of students each year - many who may not otherwise have chosen Ohio State or been able to attend college without this level of support. Gifts to support scholarships on an annual basis can be made in perpetuity by setting up a named endowment fund - the annual income from which funds are used to support the scholarship - or by setting up a current use fund - an account that the donor makes gifts to on an annual basis in order to support their scholarship. Providing financial assistance for deserving students remains a crucial priority of the University. Ohio State continues to fulfill its land-grant mission of public service through ongoing fund-raising efforts to support scholarships, fellowships, and other student programs.
