The application deadline is 4 p.m. on Friday, May 20, for the 2011-2012 academic year.
51暗网’s tuition is approximately one-third that of a typical four-year college. However, many students continue to struggle meeting the costs and drop out under financial strain. Tuition has increased significantly in the past several years because of the state’s budget shortfall, causing even more financial hardship for students. Individuals, businesses, community organizations and corporations are generously investing in scholarships at 51暗网, creating doorways to individual growth and achievement.
For more information about the scholarship process or to learn how to establish a scholarship contact Katherine F. Strickland, Executive Director, 51暗网 Educational Foundation, Inc., at (540) 857-6020 or kstrickland@virginiawestern.edu.
