Governor Jim Justice has signed a bill that will provide $80 million in funding for college students and higher education institutions in West Virginia. The legislation, which was passed with bipartisan support, is a significant investment in the state’s higher education system and will have a profound impact on college affordability for West Virginia students.
The $80 million in funding will be allocated to the state’s colleges and universities to support a variety of initiatives aimed at making higher education more affordable and accessible. A portion of the funding will be used to provide need-based financial aid to West Virginia students, helping to bridge the gap between the cost of attendance and the amount that students and their families can afford to pay.
In addition to need-based aid, the funding will also support other initiatives aimed at promoting college affordability and success. This may include programs to help students graduate on time, reduce textbook costs, and provide support services to help students stay on track to graduation.
The funding will also support faculty and staff at the state’s higher education institutions, recognizing the critical role that these individuals play in the success of West Virginia’s college students. By investing in faculty and staff, the state can help to ensure that students receive a high-quality education and have the support they need to succeed.

I am proud to have signed this bill into law and look forward to seeing the impact that it will have on college affordability and student success in West Virginia.”
