West Virginia University (WVU) requires applicants to meet specific academic criteria for admission. High school graduates must complete core courses, including four units of English, three each of math and social studies, and four of science. A minimum GPA of 2.5 is recommended, though some programs may require higher standards.
Standardized test scores (SAT or ACT) are optional for most programs but may strengthen an application. Transfer students need a 2.0 GPA from accredited institutions. International applicants must demonstrate English proficiency via TOEFL or IELTS. Additional requirements, such as essays or recommendations, vary by program.
