The Ohio State University Alumni Club of SW VA

Club Scholarship Program

Our alumni club began awarding scholarships in May 2005. Our criteria is early admission freshmen who are identified by the University by January of each year. Each receives a scholarship application from us to encourage their submission.

Standards include:

  • Ranking in top 25% of high school graduating class.
  • Demonstrated involvement in high school and community activities.
  • A sound interest and positive attitude towards college work

We have three (3) funding sources for the scholarships we award:

  • The Marjorie Forrest Lockridge OSU Endowed Scholarship Fund
  • The Ohio State University Alumni Scholarship Program (ASP). It's a merit-based scholarship available to award one student each year.
  • Our club's funds raised through donations, raffles, etc.

Ww have awarded over $15,000 in scholarships since we began in 2005.  Currently, we are positioned to award over $5,000 per year to one or more students.  You can help us do more by contributing directly to our scholarship fund (see below).
