The Park Scholarships program is named for the late Roy H. Park ’31, an NC State alumnus who endowed the Park Foundation, dedicated to education, media, and the environment.[3] With a grant from the Park Foundation, the Park Scholarships program was established in 1996 "to provide a superb educational opportunity for exceptionally talented and well-prepared young men and women who merit the intellectual challenge of a distinguished faculty and a superior university."[1]
Approximately 35-40 scholarships are awarded each year to high school seniors for undergraduate study in any discipline at NC State.[1] To be considered for the Park Scholarships program, entering freshmen must apply early admission for NC State by November 1.[4] They must also submit an application to the Park Scholarships program.[5]
