Financial Aid Programs
Choose West Virginia Practice Program
If you’re a medical student who’s not from West Virginia but want to stay and practice in state, this tuition waiver program might be a perfect fit.
How It Works
About the Program
The Choose West Virginia Practice Program is a tuition waiver program that incentivizes nonresident West Virginia medical students to remain in West Virginia to practice. Two out of state medical students from each West Virginia medical school are eligible to be awarded each academic year. Students who are awarded will receive a tuition waiver for the differential between in-state and out of state tuition (approximately $30,000). In exchange for the award, students agree to practice at an eligible service site one year for every year they receive the award.
