5. How am I going to pay for all of this?
College is a big investment (with huge returns, of course). But Ohio State is here to help you navigate the financial waters. From various forms of financial aid to so many scholarships, we’re striving to make higher education attainable for all.
Plus, both our in-state and out-of-state tuitions are among the lowest in the Big Ten. So that certainly doesn’t hurt.
