HOW CAN I BE CONSIDERED FOR FINANCIAL AID? IS THERE A SEPERATE APPLICATION FORM TO FILL OUT FOR FINANCIAL AID?
|
No, there is no seperate application form to fill out. For graduate applicants, most financial aid is available in the form of University Fellowships and graduate associateships. To apply for Fellowships and associateships, check the appropriate box(es) on the admission application. You may also want to contact your graduate program to express your interest in financial support. Contact information may be found at http://gradadmissions.osu.edu/gri.asp However, please be aware that only a limited number of awards are available; therefore, not all those who apply for Fellowships or associateships receive them.

I HAVE AN H VISA. AM I ELIGIBLE FOR FEDERAL FINANCIAL AID?

No, H visa holders are not eligible for federal financial aid from the U.S. government. Since the H1 visa holder pays taxes in the State of Ohio, they may be eligible for in-state tuition. See the Office of the Registrar's website for information on the Ohio residency criteria at http://www.ureg.ohio-state.edu. For information on how to change your visa type, contact the International Students and Scholars Office.
