Bluefield University Launches Appalachian Educator Scholarship

by | Sep 4, 2025

Bluefield University has launched the Appalachian Educator Scholarship, a new award which provides K–12 school employees in Virginia and West Virginia with a 15% tuition discount on online degree programs.

The scholarship applies to both public and private school staff, including teachers, administrators and support personnel. For new undergraduates, the award could mean up to $7,380 in savings over the course of a degree. Graduate students are also eligible for discounted tuition. 

“This scholarship recognizes the daily commitment of educators, whose influence reaches beyond the classroom into families, communities and future generations,” said Harrison Rice, associate vice president for online learning at Bluefield University.
