Don’t forget to apply for engineering scholarships for freshmen, this is an additional application due by Feb 15
Hi - it was snail mail and we live in California.
Just got awarded the NBS with Provost very excited to be a buckeye!!!
Congrats to all. My OOS daughter also recieved the NBS and provost scholarships today.
We live in VA. Her stats were ACT 29 and GPA 4.3 (weighted). School does not rank. Good luck.
Opened National Buckeye and Maximus today, OOS (obviously) admitted in the December 18th wave.
IA, 34/2230, 3.9UW.
My son received a Maximum and National Buckeye today, OOS - admitted Mid-December. He received it via mail (post) not sure what snail mail is.
31, 3.75, school does not rank, very competitive high school - one of the best in the state.
Did anyone from New Jersey hear? Still waiting with a 1400 CR/M and 4.35 weighted GPA and concerned since we actually accepted our offer–so we would have a better chance at housing. Obviously if the scholarship doesn’t pan out, OSU will become less attractive.
@kooth12 We are from NJ and my S was accepted 12/18. Just heard today regarding scholarships. Received National Buckeye & Provost.
@kooth12 You should be hearing soon. We are from NJ too and you should definitely get a good merit aid. You have great stats. All the Best!
DSNJ2016: Happy for you. Sad for us. My son was accepted on 11.20. App submitted end of August. Therefore, I think he will not get the Provost and Buckeye. Thinking we never should have accepted.Three in college next year all out of state. Every $1K helps. Thanks again for the feedback. Prefer to know where we stand and will have son call next week since we will be in the 12th week and should have been notified per OSU’s correspondence.
@kooth12, why would you not get the Buckeye if you’re OOS? And there are other higher scholarships, I’m sure you will still hear.
mommdc: I think he will get the buckeye. I was just hoping it would be coupled with the Provost vs. the Trustees or nothing additional. However, the decisions do not always seem consistent as there was a post from an individual who qualified for Maximus and received Provost. In addition, they offered my son acceptance on 11.20 and others who heard a month later have already received notification–hence my concern.
Well I hope you get good news soon
My S received Provost and National Buckeye scholarship today in mail. Accepted first week of January. SAT 2040 (cr/m 1320), top 10%, 4.4 gpa. Also direct admit to Fisher biz school.
Just got Provost plus National Buckeye today. Accepted in November. 31 ACT. Top 8%. 3.8 UW gpa.
Received Provost + National Buckeye notice today in regular mail - less than a month after the admit decision. ACT 33. GPA 3.5 unweighted, 3.9 weighted. High school does not rank. Have not heard about Honors program yet.
Son received national buckeye and trustees today. RANK COUNTS BIG TIME. Just missed top 10%. 1400 SAT
@kooth12 Congrats!
Still waiting for national buckeye only
Hope there is still some money left
Yes, I would say rank is a major factor.
Son received trustees and national buckeye today. Had 29 ACT but was 25 ranked in a class of 248.
