Transcripts
Secondary/high school transcripts
-
Freshman applicants can generally be reviewed and admitted based on unofficial transcripts. Secondary school graduates must provide their Secondary School Certificate (SSC) and Higher Secondary Certificate (HSC) marks (or marks from equivalent standard X and standard XII exams). Applicants who are still completing secondary school may apply their SSC/standard X exams.
University transcripts
-
Transfer applicants must provide official transcripts from all universities attended for review. For most applicants, this means sending original or certified paper copies in the mail. Emailed transcripts can be reviewed on a case-by-case basis (link to grad documents page for more info).
WVU reserves the right to require official or additional documents as needed to complete a complete and fair review.
Proof of English Proficiency
Citizenship is considered proof of English proficiency.
Minimum Admission Requirements
WVU will convert your results into a U.S. grade-point average (GPA) on a 4.0 maximum scale.
Freshman Requirements
Applicants with a converted GPA of at least 2.5/4.0 can be admitted. If you were admitted based on your SSC/standard X marks, your final GPA will be updated upon providing the HSC/standard XII marks. Some majors have higher GPA requirements for direct entry.
Transfer Requirements
Applicants with a converted GPA of at least 2.0/4.0 can be admitted. WVU will calculate a combined GPA if you attended multiple institutions. If you were admitted based on in progress results, your final GPA will be updated upon providing the final required documents. Some majors have higher GPA requirements and/or course requirements for direct entry.
