West Virginia University Student Success

Giving

Help our students reach their full potential.

The Office of Student Success is a part of the Center for Learning, Advising, and Student Success. We offer services and programs that provide academic support for students during their journey at WVU. It's our mission to help WVU students succeed in their courses, stay enrolled and graduate in a timely manner. 

There are many opportunities to support our ongoing programs, projects, support services and initiatives. Thank you in advance for your support and engagement!

First-Generation Initiatives

Graduation Caps
WVU welcomes students who are first-generation — those whose parent(s) or guardians(s) do not have a four-year degree from a college or school within the U.S. We understand that being first may come with unique challenges. FirstGen Initiatives is here to help students transition to college by building connections to our FirstGen community and navigating campus resources. Donations may be used towards scholarships funds, co- curricular activities, and academic expenses for students.

Please considering donating to the Sue Day-Perroots First-Generation Student Success Fund (2V539) under the Greatest Needs.
