Students
who applied for admission to KPU for the first time in the Spring or Fall
semester are invited to apply for the KPU Major Entrance
Scholarships, KPU Entrepreneurial Leadership Degree Full Ride Entrance
Scholarship, and/or Donor-Funded Entrance awards.
Recipients
of KPU's Major Entrance Scholarships are selected through a competitive process
by a selection committee. To be eligible, prospective KPU students should have
applied for and have been accepted to KPU. While generally, scholarship
eligibility is based primarily on academic achievement, in the case of Major
Entrance Scholarships, other factors such as personal statement, demonstrated
community involvement and volunteerism as evidenced by references are also
considered.
Entrance
award applicants will be short-listed and ranked by the Scholarships &
Awards Selection Committee, based on the criteria of each award. Please review
the scholarship criteria and the documentation requirements outlined below
before completing your application.
Award
payment is subject to admission and confirmation of enrollment (minimum 12
credits per semester) and final marks of eligible candidates, prior to the
disbursement of the award.
A minimum CGPA of 3.0 or greater is required for continuance purposes.
