In 2019, Virginia Western Community College launched a new scholarship program for students in STEM-H (science, technology, engineering, mathematics and health care) programs of study. The Fralin Futures scholarships undertake to:
- Focus on the “finish line,” funding the recipient’s last two semesters before graduating
- Recognize academic excellence in STEM-H programs of study (3.0 GPA or higher)
- Offer cohort activities and mentorships affiliated with the Fralin Biomedical Research Institute
The scholarship supports:
- The total cost of tuition for the final 2 semesters prior to graduation
- An additional monetary stipend equal to the cost of tuition each semester
- A cash incentive upon graduation
- A second cash incentive 6 months post-graduation, after reporting employment status
