International Student Scholarships

At WVU Potomac State College, we want the best students – so we look at more than tests and GPAs. We value your hard work and determination too. We have expanded our scholarship tiers to offer even more students the opportunity to earn a WVU degree.

International students are considered for non-resident student scholarships. No separate application is necessary. Once you are admitted, you will be reviewed for scholarship eligibility.

Deadline for scholarship eligibility: June 1, 2024 for admission and for submission of updated GPA and test scores.

Potomac State College scholarships for international students are fully integrated with the scholarship program at West Virginia University. If a student decides to change campuses from Potomac State to WVU and meets the academic standards for these scholarships, the student will be eligible to continue to receive these scholarships at WVU at the current WVU value. Students in PSC four-year programs are eligible for the scholarships for up to four years.
