Park University students are encouraged to apply for the Federal Work-Study program. Federal Work-Study will be awarded on a first come first serve basis to students who demonstrate financial need. The students will also need to demonstrate professional competency to the supervisor who is hiring them and maintain that competency (details on this are given to students during the hiring process).

Note: Federal Unsubsidized, Parent Plus loans, or private loans may replace EFC in the calculation.
Academic Competency: To remain in the program students must maintain at least a 2.0 or higher GPA.
