The WVU Benjamin M. Statler College of Engineering and Mineral Resources has three direct-
ADMISSION
tracks for incoming freshmen based primarily on math readiness. These tracks maximize your chance for a successful college experience. The pathway on which you are admitted can determine the time it takes for you to graduate. Additionally, it is important to note that you won’t start directly into a specific engineering discipline until you complete the core classes required to move into that major. Some majors are competitive, and entrance into them is based on GPA after completion of six core courses, which include ENGL 101; CHEM 115; MATH 155; and ENGR 101, 102 and 191.

FRESHMAN YEAR EXPERIENCE
SCHOLARSHIPS when accepted to WVU. These scholarships can be used in conjunction with other scholarships.
in the Statler College, we want to help you make the transition from high school to college. Our faculty, staff and advisors will work with you to set up your unique path to graduation and help you discover possibilities for your future.
At West Virginia University, we want the best and brightest students — not just the high scorers. Hard work, determination and grit are just as important to us as tests and GPAs.
Opportunities include: • Cilento Engineering Learning Center • Engineering-specific advisors and mentors • Out-of-class engineering experiences • Hands-on learning opportunities • Living-learning Communities • Dedicated labs for first-year students
That’s why 93% of our new undergrads receive financial aid, and 82% of incoming engineering freshmen earn scholarships. But we want every student to find their fit here. So we’re expanding our scholarship tiers to offer even more students the opportunity to turn their passions into a lifelong purpose.

,
Schedule a campus visit through the WVU Visitors Center for a guided or walking tour of the whole campus, and let them know you’d like an appointment to see the engineering and computer science facilities. They will set everything up for you! This option is available on most weekdays throughout the year. Do weekends work better for you? You can attend a special event like the engineering-specific open house held once per semester or a University-wide open house such as Discover WVU or Decide WVU. The one thing all visit options have in common? It’s the best way for you to see if WVU is the place you want to call home. So pick a date and come ask lots of questions! To learn more about each visit option or to schedule a visit, go to admissions.wvu.edu/visit or call the WVU Visitors Center at 304-293-3489.
It’s all about finding a career, and our Office of Corporate Relations and Career Assistance does more than just talk about it! We’ll put you in touch with companies looking to hire you for internships, co-ops and full-time positions. Throughout the year, you will have the opportunity to take advantage of: • Fall and spring Career Fairs, that draw hundreds of employers • Continuous broadcast of job postings through Handshake • Résumé review and interviewing skills classes for engineers • Staff designated to help you find co-ops, internships and full-time employment Upon completion of your undergraduate coursework, you can continue to hone your skills and develop new ones by continuing your education beyond your bachelor’s degree. Options include: • Business school • Law school • Medical school • Graduate school in engineering/ computer science
