Financial Aid 101
Choosing to go to college, let alone picking the right major or selecting the best college for you is hard.
But after all of those difficult decisions comes an entirely new
hurdle: paying for your education! Until now (for the most part)
education has been provided to you without an individual financial
burden to you and your family. Now you (with family support) are
expected to pay for furthering your education at the post-secondary
level. This section of our website is designed to show you how to
navigate this confusing and overwhelming aspect of "The College
Experience" as well as provide you with scholarship opportunities at the
local, state, and national levels from the private, public and
collegiate sectors.
Step One: Filing the FAFSA
Step Two: Apply for Local/State Scholarships
Step Three: Apply for Promise/WV Aid Programs
Step Four: Explore National Scholarship Databases
