What should I do if my off-campus rent is due before my The Ohio State University financial-aid refund arrives?
DIRECT ANSWER
Use your actual The Ohio State University aid offer and disbursement calendar, then compare it with the private lease due dates. A private landlord is not required to align rent collection with a school refund simply because the tenant is a student. CH2 has not found a current public market-local The Ohio State University student housing demand signal for this exact wording in the reviewed signal set, so it does not manufacture local popularity. The question remains published because it is a recurring 2025–26 student housing decision and The Ohio State University has a current school-specific source to anchor the answer.
- the full written fee schedule and lease term
- screening, guarantor, credit and income requirements for the actual property
- the same lease-duration basis when comparing prices
