Change of Campus Student
Enrollment and Next Steps
If you attend WVU Potomac State College or WVU Institute of Technology, you are considered a change of campus student.
As a change of campus student, you are not required to submit an academic deposit. If you have already completed WVU’s AlcoholEDU program, you will not be required to do so again.
We award transfer credit based on an evaluation of your prior academic work. This evaluation won’t be finalized until you enroll at WVU, but you can view a preliminary evaluation before enrollment.
As a WVU divisional campus student, your transcript is already in the STAR system. If someone at the WVU main campus requests your transcript, simply inform them that it is available in STAR. Your current divisional campus adviser can also answer questions and assist you in the transition.
As a current student of a WVU divisional campus, your student identification number and WVU email address will remain the same. Please continue using the WVU Portal as your connection to STAR, DegreeWorks, eCampus, and class registration.
The Potomac State College registration event for students changing campuses in the upcoming fall or summer term will take place during the first week in April.
