Financial Aid

New international students are eligible for competitive academic scholarships based upon their secondary school grades, class rank and ACT/SAT scores. Students wishing to apply for scholarships must submit the current scholarship application forms as well as all application materials required for admissions. In addition to academic scholarships, all international students are eligible for athletic based grants in all intercollegiate sports dependent upon the needs and expectations of the athletic department. International students are not eligible for any federal financial assistance and do not need to complete any federal application forms.

For more information about Academic and Athletic Scholarships, see the Financial Aid section of the web page.

Insurance

Because the United States does not have a socialized medical program, all students are required to purchase medical insurance upon enrollment. Even though the insurance does not cover 100 percent of all costs incurred, the insurance coverage generally pays for a large percentage of cost for illnesses that may occur.

For more information about the Park University health insurance, see Campus Life & Services section of the web page.

To assist students in their academic success, on-campus housing is available for all full-time students attending Park University.

The halls open a few days before fall classes and close the weekend of commencement in May. Housing is available during all break periods. Winter and Summer break housing is not part of the academic year agreement, there is a per night charge.  The residence halls have satellite television, data connections to each room, computer labs, television lounges, kitchens, game areas and clothes washing and drying facilities.
