Financial Aid |
To apply for financial aid, start here:
http://www.park.edu/finaid/
It is important that you complete the FAFSA well in advance of your intended term of enrollment, as processing can take up to 45-60 days. Applications for Admission may be sent at the same time (recommended). However, Park University's Request for Financial Aid (RFA) form should be submitted after you have been notified of admission to the Graduate School, by formal letter from the Director of Graduate Admissions.
Please be advised that you must be degree-seeking, in order to receive financial aid. Also, Park University seniors who are receiving undergraduate financial aid and who request special admission to the Graduate School, during their senior year, should be aware that any graduate courses taken during the senior year will not be covered by financial aid, as a student may not receive undergraduate and graduate financial aid, simultaneously. |
Scholarships |
Priority deadline for the Endowed Scholarship Application with autobiography/personal statement and two letters of recommendation is February 15th each year, however, applications are accepted year-round.
