"As a university community, we must join together to ensure that all members of the OSU community — students, faculty, staff and visitors — not only feel welcomed and safe, but experience our community as a place to thrive."
-President Emeritus Ed Ray
The Federal CARES Act, Federal Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act (CRRSAA), and American Rescue Plan (ARP) provided emergency aid to help students to cover additional expenses incurred from campus disruptions due to COVID-19. These may include food, housing, course materials, technology, health care and child care. OSU has now paid out all of the funding it received from the CARES Act and CRRSAA for student support. Visit our CARES, CRRSAA and ARP reporting page for details.
