We’re Committed to Making a Point Park Education Affordable

At Point Park, we make every effort to provide grants, scholarships and financial aid options to every student who needs them:

• 99% of our incoming freshmen receive financial aid.
• We awarded $79 million in financial aid last year.
• We will not reduce your institutional grants if you receive outside scholarships.

We will work with you to develop a plan that is best for you and your family.  Many options are available, such as a payment plan, the Federal Parent Loan for Undergraduate Students and/or a private education loan.
