Students

OTA recognizes the rising stars in the tourism industry—even budding tourism and hospitality students at the collegiate level. We understand your thirst for learning more about the industry, your desire to gain valuable work experience and your interest in meeting professionals who can help you take the next step toward a career in travel and tourism.

Each year, OTA recognizes the achievements of an outstanding Ohio college student currently working toward a degree in tourism hospitality. This student is awarded a $1,000 scholarship and is invited to attend Ohio’s largest annual tourism conference.

Students receive a special discount toward an OTA membership.
