Annually funded scholarships are those that are funded each year by friends and alumni. An annual gift, in any amount, may be used to provide a scholarship for a deserving student. Donors may choose on an annual basis to continue to provide scholarship funding.

 Annual scholarships give donors flexibility in cost and commitment. Gifts made to annual scholarships are not invested, and do not earn additional income. Any gift amount directed to an annual scholarship will provide direct tuition assistance to deserving OSU students.

By making a one-time scholarship gift, donors direct their contribution to the general scholarship fund in their college of choice.

Individuals who wish to pledge support over several academic years may work with Foundation representatives to create a customized scholarship program. Donors specify qualifications for recipients and name the scholarship(s) according to their wishes.

For more information about OSU’s Annual Giving program, please contact Michal Shaw , OSU Foundation Director of Scholarships and Donor Relations, or make a gift online now.
