Change of Campus Students
You are a considered a change of campus student if you attend one of our WVU divisional campuses – Potomac State College or WVU Tech. Please read these tips and then proceed with the steps to enrollment.
Tips
- As a change of campus student, you are not required to submit an academic deposit.
- If you have already completed WVU’s AlcoholEDU program, you will not be required to do so again.
- We award transfer credit based on an evaluation of your prior academic work. This evaluation won't be finalized until you enroll at WVU, but you can view a preliminary evaluation before enrollment.
- As a WVU divisional campus student, your transcript is already in the STAR system. If someone at the WVU main campus requests your transcript, simply inform them that it is available in STAR. Your current divisional campus adviser can also answer questions and assist you in the transition.
- As a current student of one of the WVU divisional campuses, your student identification number and WVU email address will remain the same. Please continue using the WVU Portal as your connection to STAR, DegreeWorks, eCampus and class registration.
- The Potomac State College registration event for students changing campuses in the upcoming fall or summer term will take place during the first week in April.
