THE OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY
2008 PRESIDENTIAL SCHOLARSHIP
The Ohio State University’s Presidential Scholarship is one of the University’s
most prestigious scholarships for incoming freshmen.
Established in 1991, the Presidential
Scholarship currently supports some of our most promising undergraduates as they
develop into future scholars and leaders. The Presidential Scholarship awards full
in-state tuition, room and board, book allowance and miscellaneous expenses.
In addition to receiving financial support, Presidential Scholars become members
of The Ohio State University’s Honors Collegium, a select group of students in the
University Honors Program. The Honors Collegium is a program for purposeful students
who expect to distinguish themselves beyond the baccalaureate degree. Members of
the Collegium create customized learning experiences, embrace rigorous academics,
and go on to become intellectual leaders in the global community.
After reviewing all online scholarship applications, Maximus essay scores, and other
data, selected students will be named as finalists and invited to attend the Interview
Weekend scheduled for Sunday, March 2 through Monday, March 3, 2008. Following this
weekend, ten individuals will be named Ohio State University Presidential Scholars.
Please note that due to the format of our finalist interview process, we are unable
to offer alternate interview dates.
To be eligible for the Presidential Scholarship, a student must:
- Be named a
Maximus
Scholar
- Register for and compete in the Maximus Competition
- Complete the Honors Online Scholarship Application (HOSA) by February 1, 2008.
Questions regarding the Presidential Scholarship Application may be directed to
Lisa Abrams, PhD, Associate Director, University Honors & Scholars Center, at
