Commuter Students

At North Park University and North Park Theological Seminary, commuting students are an important part of our community. You bring a valuable perspective to the classroom and formational life, whether it is from a different neighborhood, a full-time ministry in which you continue to serve, or a unique family background. Though you may only be on campus a few hours a week, both commuter and resident students have full access to what our campus offers. Get the information you need as a commuter:
