West Virginia Engineering, Science and Technology Scholarship Program As the title implies, this scholarship attempts to interest academically talented West Virginia students in careers in engineering, science and technology. Applicants must have at least a 3.0 GPA and agree to work full time or begin a community service program in West Virginia in a related field for one year for every year that the scholarship was received. Students not meeting the requirements will be requireed to pay back the scholarships with interest. Get applications through your school and submit by March 1. There may be other requirements.


Underwood-Smith Teacher Scholarship Program This scholarship is meant to encourage students to pursue a teaching career in West Virginia. The amount can be up to $5,000 per year. Students must be willing to teach at high school level or lower for two years for each year of scholarship received. However, if the student is willing to teach at schools with a teacher shortage, an exceptional children's program, a school having less than average academic results, or a school in an economically disadvantaged area as designated by the West Virginia Board of Education, then they may only have to teach one year for each year of scholarship received.
