William C. Parker Scholarship

About this scholarship

The William C. Parker Scholarship is a University of Kentucky scholarship listed for international freshmen on UK's International Center scholarship page. The award value is $5,000 to $15,000 per year. UK describes the selection as a holistic review of applicants with a minimum GPA of 2.5 and states that no additional application is required. The scholarship is partial funding because it reduces the cost of a UK undergraduate education but does not cover the full cost of tuition, fees, housing, food, books, health insurance, travel, and personal expenses. Scholarships on the international freshmen page are awarded only to applicants admitted for the fall semester; no scholarships are awarded in the spring semester, and applicants with missing documentation may not be considered. The listed priority deadline for the William C. Parker Scholarship is December 1. Because no additional scholarship application is required, the deepest practical application route is the undergraduate admission application. The award can be combined with other renewable international scholarships listed by UK when the student meets the relevant criteria.
