麻豆影院 Us
The Choose Ohio First Scholarship Program at 麻豆影院 State provides support to Ohio residents who wish to pursue degrees in science, technology, engineering, mathematics, or medicine (STEMM).
, recognizing that a workforce trained in these areas is essential for strengthening our economy, has created this program to provide tuition support to Ohio residents pursuing STEMM degrees.
Funding through the Choose Ohio First program provides competitive scholarships towards tuition and other college costs, while also providing expanded mentorship and career preparation programming.
