My cousin is living on campus at WVU Tech. I’d like to get her a gift card for something that’s on campus like Starbucks or Dunkin or a different coffee/break spot. What is on campus or nearby that she could use?
Hi y'all! I just got accepted into WVU as a transfer student. I'm going in as a General Business Major and I'm trying to double up in Theatre Production and Design as well. I think I'm commiting to WVU but I just got a few questions about the whole thing.
1.) How is the business/theatre department? Good, bad, pros, cons?
2.) I'll be on campus in Morgantown so what should I be on the lookout for (like weather, people, events)?
3.) What are some general pros and cons about WVU?
4.) What are some good on campus jobs?
Thank you to anyone that answers, I appreciate y'all taking time out of your day to read and respond! 🧡
If you work at sodexo location on campus you are getting a 4$ pay raise
Has anyone a strange symbol like this one except that it is the number five instead of seven in the residential area a few blocks behind the MountainLair?

I’m choosing my dorm as a freshman next year. i’m gonna be bio major so downtown. which dorm should i pick, mainly thinking between seneca and stalnaker. i also might consider honors dorms but idk. tell em ab them
Just wondering if I could make an 8 PM kickoff in Morgantown (Iowa State @ WVU 10/12) if I am coming from the 3:30 PM Cal @ Pitt game on 10/12. How much of the Pitt game would I have to miss assuming it’s an average game for the sake of time? Seeing it’s 1 hr 21 minutes from Acrisure Stadium to Milan Puskar stadium. Thanks.
So the roof is leaking in the Mountainlair today, and the answer is to put out some buckets. I get sometimes leaks get started and you have to make a temporary measuring while you figure out how to fix it, but it just seems unacceptable considering all the other issues in the building. Why is the Lair so worn down? The ballrooms are outdated, the building looks like it was last refreshed in 2005, and everything just feels so old. For a building that should be a showpiece for the university, it’s kind of sad. And don’t get me started on how a student union building doesn’t have some sort of gym. We have so many other buildings we don’t need that have been built or renovated (I’m looking at you, Reynolds Hall), so why neglect the Lair?? Do better, WVU!q
I have a 2.48 gpa unweighted and a 2.5 weighted and a 1080 Sat. What are my chances of admissions? Also on does wvu use my weighted even if I have attended multiple high schools

Hi friends! Some of your may recognize us from in front of the Mountain Lair at the Wed farmer's market. We are hosting our annual Fall Festival at our flower farm in town this Sunday. We will have live music, food vendors, farm goods, pumpkins, honey and mead tasting, scavenger hunt for kids, flower talks and bee talks and you can walk the rows of flowers.
We’re in the Brookhaven neighborhood. You will need to reserve a ticket due to limited parking but it’s one ticket per car. So bring your friends!

Hi All,
non alumni here but my wife grew up a West Virginia football fan back in the Rich Rod era but hasn't attended a home or away game in her life. we live in Southern California and are stoked that WVU is going to be playing one game out here a season between Utah, Colorado, and the Arizonas.
my question is, where are people staying and where can we join the west virgina pregame tailgate?
excited to party with you all who come out
I am very protective of my hair. I have decently long hair and need somebody who is comfortable using scissors and layering, which is hard to find as a dude. Barbers always fuck me up.
I applied as a freshman transfer on september 4th and still havent heard anything back it still says its under review. Should it be taking this long or does this mean i didn’t get in?
I’m thinking to get a game design masters from a university and found the online program at WVU. Has anyone heard or been a part of this program? I just wanted to know how it is and if it’s worth it.
I am a supply chain management major with minors in sustainability and business data analytics. do you need me on your team? Please PM to see if I'm a fit.
Hey everyone,
I'm an editor for the DA, and this week I am writing a piece about the academic advisors at WVU. If you have had any experience with your advisor--good or bad--and you don't mind talking about them with me, respond to this thread! As scheduling is coming up for current students, I want to share the general public's experience with their advisor and help students form better relationships with them. If you have any comments for my article, please let me know!
I am struggling in cs 220 and am having a difficult time being able to book an appointment with the free tutor due to my work schedule. I was wondering if anyone knows any good private tutors for that course!
Does dadisman have people that check the backside of the building at night? I always hear people RIGHT outside my window in the middle of the night and one time they had flashlights🤨 it can’t be ok for them to be able to see into my room at 4 am with a flashlight
Nothing else to say really. He’s the shits. Can’t get the guys ready every week. Convinced everyone he was heading the right direction by winning a bowl game against a North Carolina team that is currently giving up 52 points to James Madison. He seems like a good guy but he can’t recruit and coach with the big dogs.
Hello, can someone tell me the start/end times for classes? I’m trying to figure out when to avoid driving past the Mountainlair/downtown campus to miss traffic. It’s been a couple years since I graduated and I don’t remember the times very well. Do MWF classes still start on the 30s and end on the 20s of the hour? And what about TR?
Thanks.
hi! i recently got accepted into wvu. i got the email congratulating me on getting accepted about a week and a half ago, but i have yet to get the physical letter/packet they say was sent. is it normal for it to be this long? i was able to create an account and wvu mix email, but where i sent in my application ( on the wvu site itself, not common app) it still says pending. i’m just an anxious person and currently am convincing myself i fell for a scam or a prank. any help would be appreciated, thank you!!
Anyone know any good POLS 230/240 or econ 202 professors? Also, does anyone have a good GEF 5 course I could take??? (could even be honors)
Hi, all!
I'm a writer for WVU's student newspaper, The Daily Athenaeum, and I'm working on a story about balancing pet ownership and the responsibilities of student life.
I am looking for students who would be interested in going on the record discussing their personal experiences balancing pet ownership and academic/extracurricular commitments. This includes students who own or have owned cats, dogs or other exotic pets during their academic career.
My deadline is tomorrow evening.
Comment or message me ASAP if interested!
Thank you!
