Required Academic Credentials:
Original or certified (attested) copies of original academic documents from non-U.S. schools must be submitted with each application. The required documents include:
- Official academic record(s) (showing course titles, dates taken, and grades received), and
- Diploma(s) or Certificate(s) showing degree awarded.
Note: These documents must be in the original language of issue. Official English translation of these credentials is required in addition to the original language documents.
Applicants who have attended U.S. institutions must request that official transcripts be sent to WVU directly from that institution.
Applicants for graduate programs must submit records from all post-secondary education. In some cases, secondary-level education documents may be required from applicants to graduate programs.
Applicants for undergraduate programs must submit all secondary school records as well as all university-level records. Undergraduate transfer applicants should submit course descriptions or syllabi for all courses completed at the university level. Transfer credit evaluations are done after registration for the first semester/term of study.
