A person who appreciates a "green" atmosphere full of trees and the charm of nature should attend West Virginia University. The possibility of traveling to get to class, as not all the halls are located on the same campus, should also be taken into consideration. Finally, and most important, West Virginia University is the perfect school for an individual who shows exemplary school spirit and enjoys being surrounded by a student body of others who share the same enthusiam.

The kind of person that should attend West Virginia University is someone who is smart, confident and self disciplined. At this university you meet so many interesting people and have so many fun activities to attend that it is sometimes hard to stay focused. Thats why it is important to be self disciplined so that you will be able to balance having fun with and doing well in your classes. It is important to be smart and confident in order to excel in your classes as well as be active in the student activities .

I think that the perfect WVU student is one who works hard academically and plays hard socially. Although WVU is an outstanding learning environment, the social scene can overtake some students, so it is important to be academically centric. Regardless, WVU is a school that is "just big enough" to ensure that students enjoy the amenities of a large school while the professors get to know their students personally.

WVU is a fairly large school in a little state, sometimes causeing culture shock and thus failure to incoming freshmen. Due to class sizes, there can be very little professor to student interaction in many classes. Students who attend WVU need to be very self motivated in order to get things done for themselves. They need the tenacity to work through scheduling and intra school email system flaws. They need patience to deal with our notorious traffic issues. And they need self focus to avoid the pitfalls of a student body with a partier reputaion.

WVU is a big school, therefore you need to be outgoing and willing to meet new people. I'm more on the shy side but I love it here. Classes often require a good amount of group work which is a great way to meet new people. To me it mostly depends on what type of classes you like either big ones or small ones.
