Are there full scholarships for international students at Ohio State University?

I'm an international student looking to apply to Ohio State University and was wondering if they offer any full scholarships. I know financial aid for internationals can be tricky, so any info on availability or requirements would be super helpful.

Ohio State University offers several scholarships for international students. One scholarship program that you might be particularly interested in is the Eminence Fellows Program and Scholarship.

The Eminence Fellows Program is a merit-based full-ride scholarship, covering the total cost of attendance including tuition and fees, room and board, books, and even providing a small stipend for personal expenses. It's highly competitive and is awarded to 25 students each year. Scholars are selected based on academic and personal excellence, including exceptional high school records, test scores, leadership skills, and commitment to community service.

To be considered for this scholarship, you must apply to Ohio State University by November 1 and indicate an interest in the Eminence Fellows Program on the Common Application.

This scholarship would drastically decrease your financial burden as an international student at Ohio State University. However, due to its selectivity, it's best to look into other options as well. Ohio State offers other scholarships for international students such as the International Undergraduate Scholarship, renewably for up to four years. These are also worth looking into to supplement your cost of attendance.

Remember that academic performance and standardized test scores can play a large role in scholarship offerings. So, although financial aid for international students can sometimes be complex or limited, Ohio State does offer these opportunities to make attending more affordable.
