Extremely Friendly

Everyone is friendly at WVU. People are eager to meet others and you hardly ever hear catty conversations between people at parties. Partying and enjoying school life is a top priority to students but so is school work.

Nightlife

You will never have a bad time at WVU. Ever. It's easy to drink underage, if you're a girl the parties are free and always welcome to new people. There is no "invite only" parties. There are blocks and blocks of parties, plenty of bars, over 21 and under, and plenty of opportunities for fun. If you are not having a good time here, then you must be doing something very wrong.
