Scholarship Impact
Scholarship Impact
For some Buckeyes, receiving a scholarship means the ability to accept a valuable internship instead of taking on a full-time job. For others, it makes it possible to complete a degree that was once on hold, or gain enriching experiences while studying abroad.

Malik Davis
Malik gained experience and perspective through a unique first-generation scholarship program, recruiting young scholars from eight cities across Ohio.
“I was a single-mother in college trying to juggle looking after a young child, doing my studies and working to make ends meet. There were many people and organizations along my journey who helped me, sometimes in the form of loans and other times as scholarships. I have been so fortunate and am honored that I can give back as I know there are many, many students who are in need.”
