Certainly you can ask your top one or two choices if they would re-visit your financial aid. There is really nothing to lose.

But assuming you end up at Ohio State, you should seek out ways to find commutes that will suit you within the university. Above suggestion might be an excellent start. Look into clubs/organizations (which can include anything from Greek Life, religious, political, sports, academic, or just something you are interested in) to create a social group. Academically, try to meet with professors when you have the opportunity, go to any smaller break-out sessions etc.

To an extent, college your experience will be what you make of it. I think if you go into Ohio State with the right attitude and you persevere until you find your niche that it can be great. And always keep in mind how many people in the US and abroad would love to be in your shoes.
