give back to The OSU Community

SAC is able to reach and impact the student experience of thousands of Buckeyes each year thanks to the generous support of our donors. One way we do this is through our SAC Scholarships through which we are able to give thousands of tuition dollars to deserving Buckeyes! Applications open during January, and more information will be available on website or social media. 

We encourage you to join us in our mission of connecting students past, present, and future by donating to our organization with your time, talent and treasure. Explore more ways to get involved below!
