MORGANTOWN — The West Virginia University system began classes Wednesday with record numbers for first-time freshman enrollment — 6,224 across its three campuses in Morgantown, Beckley and Keyser.
The incoming class also features higher test scores and an increase in the number of international students, officials said.
“We offer students a smorgasbord of subject areas, giving them the widest possible choices, even after they arrive,” he said. “We remain small enough, however, to provide a supportive community for all.”
