This link will allow you to check the courses that will transfer to WVU, if your institution is not listed then you will need to contact Admissions and Records. Remember to look for classes listed as 000 (ex. Hist 000), because these classes are considered open credit and may fit a class offered here at WVU. If you feel the course description matches one here on our campus, then you would need to take a course description to the appropriate department for further evaluation.
