Change of Campus Students

• 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.

1. Register for Classes

   As a change of campus student, you must meet with your academic adviser by email, phone or in-person before you can register. Only your academic adviser can lift your registration hold for you.

2. Complete the FAFSA

   The FAFSA is available October 1, if you are interested in receiving financial aid or scholarships. Please be sure to submit the FAFSA prior to the March 1 deadline.

   When filling out your FAFSA, make sure you put the WVU Morgantown campus as the campus to receive your information. If you are changing campuses in a Summer or Spring term, you will need to go back into your FAFSA and add WVU Morgantown to the list of schools to receive your information if you did not include it the first time you filled out the FAFSA.

3. Apply for Housing

   Apply for on-campus housing if you are not changing to the WVU Morgantown campus with more than 24 credits completed. If you are entering the WVU Morgantown campus with more than 24 hours, you may also choose from University Apartments or other off-campus housing.
