I have known several students who have received this scholarship–all with outstanding test scores and GPA’s. What they really seem to be looking for are those students who will go on to seek and receive highly respected post-grad opportunities–Fulbright, Rhodes, Truman, Eisenhower, Marshall and Carnegie Scholarships–these students will receive extra mentoring and guidance in preparing for applying for these opportunities–besides being skilled leaders, they need to be comfortable speaking in front of groups–they need to be able to make a lasting impression on those around them. It is highly prestigious and desirable for a University to have their graduates earn these impressive honors, and Ohio State has made a very conscious effort to increase their visiblity in this area.
