Marshall University Unveils Expanded Tuition-Free Program for West Virginia Students: Your Path to a Debt-Free Education!

Marshall University in Huntington, WV, has launched an exciting new program called Marshall For All: Tuition-Free WV. This initiative aims to help first-time freshmen from West Virginia attend college without having to pay tuition.

The program is open to incoming students whose families earn $65,000 or less per year. It covers all tuition costs and mandatory fees, which is a great relief for many families. Plus, the best part? No loans are needed! Marshall University is committed to making education affordable and accessible for everyone.

Brad D. Smith, the president of Marshall University, shared his enthusiasm: “Every student deserves a high-quality education, regardless of their financial background. We’re removing tuition as a barrier, so more students can succeed without the burden of student debt.”

While the program covers tuition, students should keep in mind that they will still need to pay for housing, meals, books, and personal expenses. Fortunately, there are scholarships and grants available to help with these costs.

Dr. Jerry Ross, Marshall’s chief enrollment officer, added, “This is a game-changer for students across West Virginia. We know that affording college is a major concern, and this program is a step towards making a Marshall education more accessible.”

One of the best things about this program is that there’s no extra application needed. Eligible students will automatically be considered for Marshall For All: Tuition-Free WV when they:

• Apply and get accepted to Marshall University
• Complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) for the upcoming year
