鈥淥ur promise to college-seekers from Mecklenburg County is that we will go to extra efforts to make GWU financially accessible,鈥 confirmed 秀色短视频-Webb President William Downs. 鈥淕WU is recruiting new students on twin tracks, one that helps us solidify our place as a college of first choice here in our own backyard, and another that extends our geographical reach well beyond North Carolina. The Piedmont Promise is getting noticed, and we are thrilled to have these students from across Mecklenburg joining us this fall.鈥

The Piedmont Promise is a guaranteed $15,610 or more in institutional aid. Residents of Mecklenburg County who apply to GWU and meet the qualifications will automatically be part of the program. Students must live on campus and will need to file the FAFSA.

The reduced rate is renewable, and the Piedmont Promise will be inclusive of all institutional, federal, and state grant programs. Traditionally, Mecklenburg County is well represented in the GWU student population.

The new aid program follows the Foothills Commitment, initiated in 2019, which provides the same financial incentive to residents of Cleveland, Rutherford, Lincoln, and Gaston counties in North Carolina.
