§18C-6-6. Amount and duration of scholarship; relation to other assistance.

(a) Subject to subsection (b) of this section, each recipient of a West Virginia engineering, science and technology scholarship is eligible to receive an award of up to $3,000 for each academic year of higher education. No individual may receive a scholarship award for more than four academic years for the completion of a baccalaureate degree.

(b) No individual may receive a scholarship award under this article which exceeds the cost of attendance at the institution the individual is attending. The cost of attendance shall be based upon the actual cost of tuition and fees. If the amount of the West Virginia engineering, science and technology scholarship award and the amount of financial assistance which the recipient has received from all other sources exceed the cost of attendance, the institution's financial aid officer, in consultation with the recipient, will determine which source of financial aid is to be reduced and shall do so in a manner to the best advantage of the recipient.
