Â鶹AV Promise

 

Â鶹AV Promise is just that – an assurance to students that they can and will complete their college degrees.  

This start-to-finish program is a commitment to give eligible students the opportunity of a life-changing education while covering institutional costs and the tools they need to succeed, such as mentorship, tutoring, counseling and other individual guidance. 

Students who are admitted to Â鶹AV and are selected to the Â鶹AV Promise Program have the opportunity to graduate debt-free. This scholarship will be combined with other federal and state grants and scholarships to meet the student’s financial need associated with the cost of a full-time resident tuition, mandatory fees, standard housing, and meal plan.
