Every state supported college and university in West Virginia waives tuition and mandatory fees for veterans who received the Medal of Honor or the Purple Heart. The waiver runs for up to eight semesters and applies only after all your other state and federal education benefits, grants and scholarships have been used.
Contact the admissions office at the West Virginia public institution you plan to attend and ask for the Medal of Honor and Andrew J. Trail Purple Heart tuition waiver.
