Am I required to submit an affidavit of support if I plan to support myself financially?

Do you have scholarships for international students?

Ohio Wesleyan awards mostly merit-based scholarships which is provided to students who have demonstrated outstanding academic achievement. A small amount of need-based aid is sometimes offered to academically qualified students who need additional resources to attend Ohio Wesleyan. If you wish to be considered for the very limited need-based aid, complete our online application form. PLEASE NOTE: Review of the need-based aid form is only done AFTER a student has been admitted. It is not required at the application stage.

May I work while I'm a student?

Yes, you are allowed to work on campus for a limited number of hours when school is in session and full-time during breaks and summer. F-1 students are prohibited by the U.S. non-immigrant law to work off-campus.
