Academics Aren't Too Bad If You Put the Time in

This is college so its going to be more difficult than high school. A S***LOAD of freshman get taken up by the party scene. Yes we absolutely do have the BEST PARTY SCHOOL but you need to spend time on school work. Professors are there if you need them. We have an amazing library and thousands of places to study like the mountain lair, library, dorms, anywhere outside, and usually buildings have some sort of area dedicated to studying with tables and chairs. Especially the Business and Economic building, and brooks Hall. The Undergraduate business program recently was ranked in the top 100 in the country. We also brought in a new Dean and have plans to build a better graduate building. But when your getting a job its more than academics. You have to get some extracurriculars. Its so easy to join a club.. ESPECIALLY FRESHMAN YEAR. if you've had it all throughout college it looks better than doing it starting your junior year. The academic business frat I'm in meets once a week for the 1st semester and then for the rest of your time in college its only twice a month.. NOT that hard.

Excellent Professors

As an Industrial Engineering student, I can easily say that WVU professors are making everything more simple and understandable.

They go over things if you don't get it at the first time, and always are willing to help you on anything you need.

I am thankful for what WVU is giving me!

You won't regret.
