External Scholarships
External Scholarships
The following scholarship and financial support opportunities are offered by organizations outside of the Knowlton School and Ohio State. Please connect with each organization directly to locate information about application procedures and deadlines. This is not an exhaustive list. Please continue to do your own research on scholarship opportunities sponsored by community groups or professional associations.
If you receive an aid award from outside sources, you and your award donor can obtain information about Ohio State's process for disbursing those funds to you in the External Aid Resource Guide. Federal regulations require that external scholarships be considered part of a student's overall financial aid package, which cannot exceed the cost of attendance. Once a payment from an external scholarship is applied, your financial aid package may be adjusted as a result additional awards and scholarships.
