Morrill Scholars Program

The Morrill Scholarship Program

The Morrill Scholarship Program (MSP) is Ohio State's premier merit scholarship program rewarding academically talented students who are actively engaged in diversity-based leadership, service, and social justice activities. The MSP mission is to support the recruitment, retention, and success of students through scholarships and education enrichment programs that inspire advocates and champions of diversity, inclusion, social justice, and academic excellence on campus and in the broader community.

The Ohio State University is strongly committed to creating a diverse campus that is inclusive of all community members. The Morrill Scholarship is awarded on a competitive basis to students admitted to the Columbus campus for the Autumn semester following high school graduation. Applicants must be U.S. citizens or legal permanent residents of the United States. MSP seeks academically talented high school seniors who will:

  • Contribute to campus diversity
  • Actively engage as advocates and champions of diversity, inclusion, social justice and academic excellence on campus
