Scholarships change lives. With a gift on Day of Giving, so can you.

(Especially when you DOUBLE your impact with our special match opportunity!)

Save the date for April 17 when alumni, family and friends of Ohio State will go all in to support undergraduate and graduate students with critically needed scholarships.

Without this support, too many motivated students are at risk of abandoning their college ambitions due to financial burden and practical obstacles to success.

Scholarships open doors to exceptional opportunities for learning, mentorship and collaboration at Ohio State. But they also help students to meet everyday needs. Your gift can also help cover a student’s bus ride to class, that pre-exam breakfast or a room in a residence hall to call home.

Thousands of students. Different journeys. Scholarships change lives.

Portrait of President Carter

“I believe affordability and accessibility, along with student success, are our North Star. Day of Giving raises money for initiatives that create more pathways for students to attend Ohio State through scholarships. I am committed to reducing student debt and grateful to our donors for supporting those who are inspired to pursue higher education and need additional resources.”

Walter “Ted” Carter Jr.
President, The Ohio State University

With just $5, you can join our caring Buckeye community in collectively supporting these students. But on this Day of Giving, because every dollar raised for scholarships will be matched up to $100,000, even just a little more can go a lot further!

If you’d like to make an ongoing commitment, you can also choose our monthly giving option.


Please support scholarships this Day of Giving.

(They matter more to students than you may think!)
