Tazewell County Residents Can Now Attend SWVCC Tuition Free

A donation is now allowing Tazewell County Virginia residents to attend Southwest Virginia Community College tuition free. Tazewell County has been struggling to find a way to fund the tuition free program, until a generous financial gift from Ms. Priscille McCall was received. Students are required to maintain a two point zero grade point average, take at least six hours of credit per semester, pass a drug test each semester and complete at least eight hours of community service. Students will also be required to stay within the state for two years after earning their degree or have to repay the grants.
