All groups requesting shows, except for those funded/supported directly by the OSU College of The Arts & Sciences, are subject to these admission fees. Financial aid is available to education-based groups such as schools who are unable to pay the fee. If you require funding to make a field trip to the planetarium, please email the planetarium director directly to apply for financial aid for your group. Our goal is to support all school groups who would like to visit the planetarium.

Bus Parking
OSU's CampusParc allows school buses to park in any unrestricted space (which excludes disability, reserved, or hourly spaces) at no charge if they have city, county, state, or any other government license plate. CampusParc would prefer buses park / stage in the Scarlet and Gray Lots near the Schottenstein Center (assuming there are no events taking place at the Schott) between dropping off and picking up. If you require bus parking accommodations for your group, please contact CampusParc directly at (614) 688-0000.
