As college acceptance letters arrive in mailboxes across West Virginia, high school seniors are getting welcome news about a significant financial opportunity. The Promise Scholarship, West Virginia's flagship merit-based aid program, is offering eligible students up to $5,500 annually starting with the 2025-2026 academic year.
For West Virginia's students maintaining a 3.0 GPA or higher, the Promise Scholarship serves as a vital bridge to higher education, covering tuition and mandatory fees at any eligible two- or four-year institution within the state.
"The Promise Scholarship represents our state's commitment to keeping our brightest students here at home," says the West Virginia Higher Education Policy Commission, which administers the program through its student portal at
CFWV.com.
.
To qualify, students must complete their high school education at a West Virginia public or private school, with at least half their credits earned in-state.
St. Marys High School is pleased to announce that the Class of 2025 currently has 19 WV Promise Scholars for the 2025-2026 school year.
