Ways to participate
Food and Cultural Booth
Student organizations can apply to prepare food and showcase their culture with a food and cultural booth. Only 17 organizations will be selected for the food preparation portion of the event, and three additional organizations will be selected to prepare a beverage representative of their home country.
Please note that recipes are saved and filed under your student organization to be used for four years. If your student organization re-applies to be in Taste of OSU, we will use the same recipes. This procedure helps reduce food waste and streamline food preparation. Your application will not be complete until you upload your recipes to the new folder (see below) as part of the application process.
The deadline to apply is Sunday, November 3 at 11:59 p.m.
To apply, the organization must complete the application above and successfully submit two recipes. View Recipe Submission for more information.
Cultural Performance
Student organizations can apply to perform on stage. The cultural performance can include dance, music, instruments and more.
