Did you know?
We have also collected our resources for students who are still exploring schools, admitted students, and their families.
Choosing a Major
WVU has 129 undergraduate majors available for students. Students are strongly encouraged to apply into their major of choice since WVU Admissions will review a student’s application for their major first. If a student does not earn admission to their major, WVU Admissions will review the student’s file for an undecided major.
Is your student interested in knowing what their academic experience could look like throughout their years on campus? Visit the majors list and click on a major so they can explore academic opportunities, student organizations, living-learning communities, popular courses, and careers.
