Financial Support

Below an overview over the types of financial support offered by the department and university. All types of support include tuition costs in addition to stipends that well exceed the university's Estimated Graduate Costs. Costs of living in Columbus are generally below national average. In order to estimate what an OSU Ph.D.-entry salary translates to at your location go to Compare Cost of Living and enter your current location as "Destination".


Graduate Teaching Associateships (GTA)

The majority of current mathematics graduate students are supported by GTAs and all incoming students are offered GTA support unless already supported by fellowships. Stipends in 2012/13 for entering Regular-Ph.D. students are $2090/month and for entering M.M.S. and Ph.D.-Track students 2200/month in stipends.

The work load of teaching associates involves 6 hours per week of student contact, plus preparation and grading. GTA positions are renewable assuming adequate academic progress.

University (Recruitment) Fellowships

In addition to GTA positions the university offers competitive University Fellowships to domestic and international applicants with excellent academic records and GRE general test scores. Standard University Fellowships support incoming students for their first twelve months of study without any teaching obligation.

For the most competitive files also two year (first and dissertation year) or three year (first, second, and dissertation year) fellowships are available.

Stipends are supplemented by the department so that they equal GTA salaries at the same level. In addition fellows receive an 'excellence bonus' of $3000/year for their first four years.

Graduate Enrichment Fellowships (GE)

GE fellowships are also competitive awards offered by the university with similar terms and stipend amounts for the first year. In particularly compelling cases support includes in addition the dissertation year. Eligible are domestic students (U.S.citizens only) from traditionally underrepresented groups (including Hispanics, African Americans, Native Americans, Pacific Islanders, as well as Asian Americans).

Applicants who want to be considered for GE's will need to declare their race/ethnicity on the application and submit GRE general scores.

Departmental Fellowship Support

Beyond the beginning year fellowships that are awarded by the university during the admission process the department offers several funding opportunities for continuing students.

These include two types of semester-long fellowships, covering stipends and tuition without teaching obligations. Namely, about 15 to 19 "Special Graduate Assignments" (SGA) available to doctoral students each year as well as 2 to 3 "Rhodus Graduate Fellowships" (RGF) for students with computational aspects in their studies.

Depending on current external funding additional support may be available through the Mathematical Research Institute (MRI) and other departmental initiatives.

Summer Support

A variety of sources of support are available for the summer term. These included departmental Graduate Research Associateships (GRA's), GRA's funded by external funds of advisors, as well as several GTA's. In recent years this provided funding for the vast majority (>90%) students requesting summer support.

University Presidential Fellowships

The university offers over 30 competitive Presidential Fellowships each year to the strongest doctoral students on campus. Besides the great prestige this award carries full stipend and tuition support for a 12 month period during the dissertation year. In recent years mathematics students won on average between one and two Presidential Fellowships per year.

Headstart Fellowships

Each new graduate student at Ohio State is encouraged to accept an initial Headstart Summer Fellowship, which carried a stipend of at least $260 per week.

Tuition Waivers & Health Insurance Subsidy

All of the Graduate Associateship and Fellowship positions above include automatic fee waivers of instructional tuition fees. In addition students who held such positions during the academic year receive tuition support in the following summer regardless of holding a GA position or fellowship.

Moreover, for students on these positions the university covers 85% of their health insurance premium.
