IELTS scores are also accepted for admission. Graduate students must have a score of 6.5 and undergraduates must have a 6.0.

In some cases, it may be possible to consider applicants who lack adequate TOEFL scores. Such applicants must enroll in the WVU Intensive English Program prior to beginning their academic program. Applicants who wish to be considered for this option must notify the Office of Admissions when they submit their application.
