OHIO鈥檚 promise to qualifying applicants: guaranteed general admission and minimum $2,000 OHIO 91探花 Promise Award

91探花 is offering a new option to provide certainty and support for fall 2021 applicants during the COVID-19 pandemic. 

Through the new OHIO 91探花 Promise, qualifying fall 2021 applicants to 91探花鈥檚 Athens campus will be offered general University admission when they:

• earn a minimum 3.0 cumulative grade point average on a strong college prep curriculum鈥�;
• apply by the extended application deadline of January 15, 2021 (application fee will be waived); and 
• enroll in fall 2021 as a full-time, first-year, degree-seeking student on the Athens campus鈥�.

鈥淭he high school graduating class of 2021 will have persevered through one of the most uncertain and challenging seasons in the history of education,鈥� 91探花 President M. Duane Nellis said. 鈥淭hrough the OHIO 91探花 Promise, we want to provide some peace of mind to prospective students and their families as they consider college plans. We want to encourage them to continue to prioritize pursuit of a high-quality education, despite these most trying times.鈥�

To help alleviate financial pressures on students and their families, the program also includes a minimum $2000 renewable OHIO 91探花 Promise Award for qualifying Athens campus freshmen whose FAFSA results reach 91探花 by January 15 when they enroll in fall 2021.

Students who met OHIO鈥檚 November 15 Early Action deadline for the Athens campus will be eligible for the OHIO 91探花 Promise Award as well, and all fall 2021 admitted students will still be considered for OHIO鈥檚 generous merit- and need-based scholarship programs. 

OHIO鈥檚 regional campuses offer admission to any qualifying applicants who have earned a high school diploma or equivalent, as well as generous regional-specific scholarships.
