Appeal to Waive Half-Time Enrollment Requirement

To receive the WV Invests Grant, a student must be enrolled at least half time in degree pursuant courses, which are courses required for completion of the student’s academic program.

Please visit www.collegeforwv.com/wvinvests for details about the WV Invests Grant Program.

If there are not enough degree pursuant courses available during a term toward your degree program to enroll at least half time for reasons outside of your control, you may appeal to have the half-time requirement to receive an award be waived.

  • The hours requirement for the semester of your approval will be waived.

You must be meeting all other program eligibility criteria and, if the award is a renewal, be meeting renewal requirements, to receive an award. If your enrollment changes to half time or greater or your program eligibility status changes, your approval will automatically be rescinded.

If denied:

You will not be eligible for the WV Invests Grant for the term. However, you may be able to adjust your registration to enroll half-time in degree pursuant courses and keep the award. You should work with the financial aid office and/or academic advisor at your institution.
