How to Apply
To change your campus to WVU Morgantown, you must:
Review Your Eligibility
To be eligible to enroll as a Change of Campus student at WVU Morgantown, you must have at least a 2.0 GPA in all college work attempted. Some programs have additional course requirements and higher GPA requirements. Review the program requirements to confirm your eligibility.
If you have fewer than 24 transferable credit hours, you must also meet freshman admission standards,
Students interested in Nursing, Nursing RN to BSN, Nursing BS/BA to BSN, Biomedical Laboratory Science, and Dental Hygiene must complete the standard admission application and should not follow the Change of Campus process outlined here.
Complete the WVU Application
Complete the WVU Application and select that you are a Change of Campus student. No application fee is required.
Note: You can’t use your WVU Login credentials to sign into the application. You must create a separate MyWVU login.
You don’t need to submit transcripts from WVU Potomac State College, WVU Tech, or WVU Online. The Office of Admissions will compile and review that information.
Transferring Course Credit to WVU
Once WVU has received your Change of Campus application and supporting documents, and your eligibility for admission has been determined, the Office of Admissions will conduct a preliminary evaluation of your course work. Credits and grades for college-level courses completed at any institution may be accepted as long as WVU offers the subject area. For example, WVU offers history courses and will therefore accept all history courses from accredited institutions (slight variations may occur).
Credits from 2-year community colleges and junior colleges are limited to a maximum of 72 hours of lower-division credit. Grades and credits are transferable for college-level courses from all institutions accredited by the Higher Learning Commission, or by other regional accrediting associations accepted by WVU.
The Office of Admissions will translate your credit into WVU equivalents once you have been admitted. Your academic college or school will then determine how, and/or whether your courses are applied toward completing your degree. In some cases, upper-division courses may not apply toward your degree.
You can learn more about how your existing course credit may transfer to WVU by using our Transfer Equivalency System.
