West Virginia University
Columbus State students who earn the Associate of Arts, Associate of Science, or the Associate of Applied Science degrees with a GPA of 2.0 or higher are guaranteed admission to WVU on their main campus in Morgantown, West Virginia. Students are not guaranteed admission into their chosen major, if that major requires a higher GPA or certain prerequisite course work unless the student meets those requirements upon completion of their Columbus State degree.
- Students who earn the AA or the AS degree at Columbus State will have all lower division general education requirements at WVU met. Students may have to take additional lower division course work in math or science if their major program requires it.
- Students who earn the AAS will have all course work evaluated for application to the general education and major portions of the bachelor's degree. If any general education for WVU is not satisfied with AAS course work, students may need to complete that course work at WVU.
- Grades and credits are transferrable to WVU.
- The final 30 semester hours must be completed at WVU of any undergraduate degree.
