New Students
Starting with new students beginning Fall 2024, the Parkland College Board of Trustees Scholarship will cover 100% of full-time tuition and fees (excluding Aviation fees). This scholarship is awarded to the top 10 percent of graduating seniors from each high school in Parkland’s district (District 505). Students must attend Parkland full-time immediately after graduation from high school. This scholarship will cover tuition and fees for a maximum of two consecutive years (including two summer terms).
