Bill Summary
To enact section 3345.67 of the Revised Code regarding athletic scholarship limits for foreign students at state institutions of higher education.
AI Summary
This bill establishes a new rule for state colleges and universities in Ohio regarding athletic scholarships for international students. Specifically, the bill limits the number of scholarships, grants, or other financial assistance tied to athletic participation that can be awarded to foreign students to no more than 25% of the total scholarships in any given academic year for each intercollegiate athletic program. The bill references section 3345.011 of the Revised Code for the definition of a "state institution of higher education," which ensures a precise legal definition is used. By capping the percentage of athletic financial aid that can go to international students, the legislation appears aimed at ensuring a balanced approach to scholarship allocation that provides opportunities for both domestic and international student-athletes while preventing a potential overconcentration of athletic scholarships for foreign students.
