For Counselors & Advisors
Fall 2023 Updates:
- Information will be emailed to counselors in NC State’s undergraduate admissions database in late August. Please update your school’s contact information.
- Most North Carolina schools and select out-of-state schools will be sent a mailed package of Park Scholarships recruitment materials in early September. To request to be added to this mailing list, contact parkscholars@ncsu.edu.
- As of fall 2022, we no longer require counselor endorsements. Please encourage all qualified students to apply.
To be considered for the Park Scholarships, candidates must submit all materials — including both the application for admission to NC State and the Park Scholarships application — by 11:59 pm EST on Nov. 1.
Who should I encourage to apply?
We seek dynamic individuals who can contribute to society in a multitude of ways. Park Scholarship nominees must demonstrate the following criteria:
- Leadership
- Commitment to Service
- Scholarship
- High Moral Character
The Park Scholarship is merit-based. Factors such as financial need, a student’s interest in attending NC State, and intended major should not be considered when identifying students.
Please encourage any outstanding and highly-qualified students at your school to apply by Nov. 1.
