With budget cuts looming around the state,
PROMISE officials are
considering raising the state-funded
scholarship's standards, but not for a while.
PROMISE Director Robert Morgenstern
assured the PROMISE
Board of Control today the program
isn't in trouble. He says a promise has
been made and the promise will be kept.
Board members said that any changes
would not happen this year or even next
year.
PROMISE pays the college tuition of
every West Virginia high school student
with a 3.0 grade point average
and a 21 on the A-C-T college admission
exam.
The board did
postpone further discussion on
allowing students to use the scholarship at
out-of-state universities that provide
programs unavailable in West Virginia.
