The Mountaineer School-Based Mental Health Fellows program is an innovative partnership between WVU’s Counseling Program and Harrison County Public Schools in West Virginia, funded by a five-year, $5.2 million grant through the U.S. Department of Education. Students selected for this opportunity will receive generous financial, academic, and personal assistance for both years in WVU’s counseling graduate program, and will complete their practicums and internships in schools located in Harrison County, West Virginia. Moreover, students selected for this program must commit to working in a high-need school district in West Virginia for at least two years after graduating from WVU’s counseling program. If you're considering pursuing a master's degree in counseling, this may be the experience for you!
