On the Antioch College campus in Yellow Springs.
COLUMBUS, Ohio -A program Gov. Mike DeWine created to award scholarships to top high school graduates who attend college in the state, with the hopes that they’ll ultimately launch their careers in Ohio, was so successful that it needed more money before it began.
The Ohio Controlling Board, a panel of state lawmakers and governor’s appointees who review high-dollar financial decisions for state agencies, last week approved the transfer of $2.7 million from a need-based scholarship reserve fund to the Governor’s Merit Scholarship Program, which offers up to $5,000 a year to Ohio high schoolers who graduate at the top 5% of their class and stay in the state for college.
