The deadlines to apply for the state’s financial aid programs for the 2025-2026 academic year are quickly approaching.
Applications for the merit based Promise Scholarship – which offers recent high school graduates $5,500 – are being accepted until March 1. Students who apply must have a minimum 3.0 GPA and an ACT composite score of 21 or a total score of 1080 on the SAT.
The need-based West Virginia Higher Education Grant Program is accepting applications until April 15. The $3,400 grant is open to anyone planning to enroll in a post-secondary program within the next 12 months, including adult first-time students and those returning to college to retrain.
“The Promise Scholarship and Higher Education Grant open doors of opportunity for West Virginia’s students,” Sarah Tucker, state chancellor of higher education, said. “I encourage this year’s high school seniors to complete the FAFSA and apply for our state’s financial aid programs, and to reach out to our office for support.”
Submission of the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, better known as the FAFSA, is a requirement for all state financial aid.
For assistance filing the FAFSA or with applications, students and families are encouraged to call the state’s financial aid hotline at 877-987-7664. Students are also encouraged to sign up for West Virginia’s text-message college counseling program, “Txt 4 Success,” by visiting cfwvconnect.com/txt-4-success/.
