Ohio Leadership Awards Program

<p>I applied for Case's Ohio Leadership Awards Program and was recently notified of finalist status. Does anybody know how many people are designated finalists for the eight scholarships? Also, any ideas how much the scholarship is worth?</p>

<p>I was invited for interviews on March 31 and the Saturday Sampler on April 1, anybody else headed up to Case on those days?</p>

<p>Can anybody provide useful information? Thanks!</p>

<p>I was planning on applying for this scholarship, but I am the second lead role in our school's musical production, and our show week happens to be March 30 through April 2.</p>

<p>I called them to see if there was any possibility of rescheduling my interview, should I be chosen as a finalist, and they essentially told me that since I had already received the Trustee's Scholarship ($25,700) that I would most likely be turned down as a recipient, even if I made it to the finalist round.</p>

<p>So, if you've got the Trustee's scholarship, you probably shouldn't worry about this one.</p>

<p>Specifically regarding the scholarship itself:</p>

<p>The Ohio Leadership Awards Program provides a total of $87,000 in scholarships annually. The scholarships will be awarded to at least twelve Ohio residents who are freshman applicants. A separate application, a nomination by a high school faculty member, and an on-campus interview with a faculty member and an alumnus are required. The Ohio Leadership Awards Program application will be mailed to applicants who indicate interest in this program on their admission application. These awards are renewable for up to eight (8) semesters of undergraduate study if the recipient maintains satisfactory academic progress.</p>

<p>$87,000 among (at least) twelve people makes it $7,250 at MOST, but that can go down depending on the number of recipients.</p>

<p>Hope this information is helpful for you, and good luck!</p>
