High School ACCESS Program
High school students have the opportunity to take West Virginia University courses and earn college credit. These students are invited to become participants in the ACCESS program.
Credit for coursework taken will be recorded on an official WVU transcript. This college credit applies to a student’s academic progress at WVU or may be transferred to other institutions of higher education. Whether these credits count toward high school graduation is a decision of the Board of Education of the county in which the student resides.
ACCESS Admission Requirements Advanced high school students may enroll in WVU courses through the ACCESS program. You must meet the following criteria to be eligible for admission to the WVU ACCESS program:
- High School cumulative GPA of 3.0 or greater on a 4.0 scale
- Completion of the junior year of high school
- Permission of parent or guardian
- Permission of high school principal, vice principal or guidance counselor
