Campus Life

You won’t find WVU students complaining that there’s nothing to do on campus!

With over 300 student organizations, a state-of-the-art Student Recreation Center, WVUp All Night’s slate of weekend events, and nationally-known performers and speakers visiting campus on a regular basis, our students have a wide range of activities from which to choose. It’s easy to get involved, find others who share your interests, and develop lifelong friendships.

“No matter what your interests are, there is always someone on campus who shares that interest.”—Aaron Berg, medical student from Scherr, WV
