Missouri State-West Plains Giving Day

Missouri State University-West Plains is the two-year, open-admission campus in the Missouri State University system. Offering certificates and associate degrees, MSU-West Plains provides the full-college experience, including  a residence hall, an Honors program, study abroad opportunities, student organizations, and more. A wide variety of financial aid options, including the A+ scholarship  are available to our nearly 1,800 students. 

Missouri State-West Plains offers educational programs that meet a wide range of needs. Students can choose from a rigorous transfer program that will prepare them to enter a four-year college or university, or one of our two-year career programs that provide the technical, hands-on training needed to find employment in a variety of fields. And, with a campus in Mountain Grove and a growing list of online programs, access to a college degree is easier than ever! 

Students don’t have to stop with an associate’s degree at Missouri State-West Plains. Thanks to the Outreach Program offered by Missouri State University’s Springfield campus, several bachelor’s and master’s degrees can be completed on the West Plains campus. 

Our NJCAA Division I Grizzly Athletics program includes Women’s Volleyball, Men’s Basketball, Softball, Baseball, ESports, and is continuing to grow. 

Your generous contribution during Giving Day 2024 will help us continue our sixty-year journey of providing quality, educational opportunities to students in southcentral Missouri and beyond. 

Thank you Grizzlies!
