@Cthulhu789 Did the NPC on the Ohio State website return an estimated cost of attendance that was materially different from the actual financial award? If yes that’s worth a call to the Financial Aid office. As a public institution funded in part by the taxpayers of Ohio its not surprising that their need based aid isn’t generous to students from out of state. The same would be true if an Ohio student applied to Penn State or University of Maryland. The OSU financial aid website is pretty clear that all but one of their grants require Ohio residency. I’m not trying to say I don’t understand the disappointment - I just am not sure it’s fair to hold that against OSU.
