Together, we can fuel student success and keep education affordable for Buckeyes.
Featured Fund for Day of Giving
The Ohio State Fund for Student Scholarships helps provide an affordable and accessible education for students with financial need. When you give to this fund, you help create scholarship opportunities that make a tangible difference in the lives of students. By caring about Buckeyes with a gift to the Ohio State Fund for Student Scholarships today, you empower them to make their best contributions to our world tomorrow.
Why Your Gift Matters
Student loan borrowers at Ohio State graduate with an average debt of $27,000. Your gift can help minimize the debt burden for students who borrow. Scholarships help ensure our students gain all the experience, resources and training they need to be successful, both during their college careers and beyond. By supporting scholarships, you can make a lasting, transformational impact on the lives of students and their families — removing financial barriers and helping turn Buckeye dreams into reality.
Impact in Action
With the help of scholarships, students can pursue their passions and reach their full potential. Take Ally: a fourth-year food, agricultural, and biological engineering major who has been fully supported through scholarships in her time here at Ohio State. Scholarship support has allowed her to flourish in the classroom and beyond. It has allowed her to be a leader in the Society of Women Engineers, work internships at Nestle and Cargill, be a part of the studio dance performance team, study and create an undergraduate thesis, and go on an agricultural and sustainability study abroad experience in Panama over winter break.
About Scholarship and Student Support
Scholarship and Student Support not only creates pathways to an accessible, affordable education — but also changes lives and empowers Buckeyes to create vibrant futures. Receiving a scholarship greatly enhances students’ time at Ohio State. For some, it means the ability to accept a valuable internship instead of taking on a full-time job. For others, it makes it possible to complete a degree that was once on hold, or gain enriching experiences while studying abroad. Your investment in Scholarship and Student Support helps students stay focused on their academics and make the most of their Buckeye experience.
