University Aid

An array of opportunities exist for a student to gain financial aid, including loans, grants and scholarships. Financial assistance is available through the university, College of Engineering and department.

To apply for scholarships from all sources, students complete one form. Each year, the application is due by March 1st.  Students should return the original version to the Office of Student Financial Aid in 507 Lincoln Tower as well as two copies to David Donley in 122 Hitchcock Hall.

 

Department Aid

Students already in the Chemical Engineering major or intending to major in Chemical Engineering the following academic year may apply for departmental scholarships. Students use the same form to apply for departmental scholarships that they completed for university and college scholarships. The department will receive one of the two copies that the student has provided to the college office. Click here to access a listing of current departmental scholarships and the criteria for each.

College Aid

The College has two distinct goals to accomplish with engineering scholarship programs - recruitment and retention. The College allots only about 10% of our scholarship budget to recruit New First Quarter Freshmen (NFQF). The remaining 90% is focused on retention and awarded to enrolled students based on their academic performance at OSU. For the 2002-03 academic year the College of Engineering and the individual engineering departments combined, awarded approximately 1200 engineering scholarships worth nearly $1,400,000 to undergraduate students.

For additional information about engineering scholarship programs, please contact David E. Donley, College of Engineering Scholarship Coordinator (122 Hitchcock Hall, (614) 292-7694, donley.2@osu.edu).

University Aid

Financial aid is intended to help students finance their education when family and personal resources are not adequate to meet the total educational costs. Financial aid consists of scholarships and grants, loans (which must be repaid), and part-time employment. The university makes every effort within its means to help students with limited financial resources secure the needed funds.

Early and realistic financial planning is essential to ensure that students have adequate resources to be able to attend Ohio State and take advantage of the many experiences that the university offers. The Office of Student Financial Aid helps students and their families on all campuses plan for financing a college education. Please visit http://sfa.osu.edu/ for more information regarding financial aid at the university, including general information, downloadable forms and checklists and listings of university scholarships.

All students should complete the FAFSA regardless of potential income.  For some university and college scholarships it is required that students have completed the FAFSA

The FAFSA school code for Ohio State is 003090.
