Church Matching Grant

Through the Church Matching Grant program, North Park will match a financial gift from a home church, up to $500 per academic year (this is effective starting Fall semester 2019), with an equal financial award. If the addition of the Church Matching Grant funds and the North Park Match exceeds a student’s tuition charges for the semester, North Park institutional match will be reduced so not to exceed the tuition charges.

Through this initiative, North Park seeks to honor and encourage the support local congregations offer to their members who are called into ministry and desire to seek theological training. All degree and certificate students may take advantage of this program. This grant can be combined with any other scholarship or grants awarded.
