Matching Grant Funding for Informal Learning Spaces

Departments and organizations may qualify for up to $50,000 in matching grant funding to transform interior and exterior campus spaces. 

In alignment with Ohio State’s strategic plan and the university’s campus master plan (Framework 3.0), the Integrated Physical Planning Liaison Group is encouraging applications to develop informal learning and outdoor spaces on campus for FY26. Planning, Architecture and Real Estate (PARE) will work with applicants to ensure the project and design meet university guidelines. Inquire online today and a representative from PARE will help you begin the grant application process. 

New applications will be reviewed beginning mid-July.  Applications will be accepted on a rolling basis until funding is exhausted.
