As an MSP scholar, students join community whose primary goal is to ensure your academic and career success. Each academic program within KU MSP addresses academic, social, personal, and career aspects of the student university experience and prepares one to receive the maximum benefit of their education during your program of study. Each of the academic programs within MSP have a Program Director(s), who will serve as your primary contact throughout your KU experience. In addition, as an MSP scholar, you would receive renewable scholarships.
