Various

West Virginia University offers scholarships based on criteria like academic merit, financial need, diversity, leadership and service. In-state and out-of-state students — including test-optional applicants — can qualify. And best of all, some scholarships “stack,” which means you can get more than one. These scholarships are automatic, non-competitive, and renewable. That means if your GPA/test score qualifies, you get the scholarship. You’re not competing against other applicants.
