Hey guys! I've been researching West Virginia University and I'm curious about the student population there. Can anyone tell me the approximate number of undergraduate students that attend? Is the campus more lively and bustling or calmer and spread out?
Sure! West Virginia University (WVU) has an undergraduate enrollment of approximately 24,000 students. The campus is lively and bustling due to its considerable size, but it is also spread out across three campuses in Morgantown, WV: the Downtown Campus, Evansdale Campus, and Health Sciences Campus. These distinct campuses contribute to a diverse, vibrant environment with various academic and social activities.
The Downtown Campus houses many of the university's liberal arts, business, and journalism programs, and is known for its historic architecture with red-bricked buildings. Evansdale Campus is where most of the engineering, agriculture, and creative arts programs are located, and has numerous green spaces perfect for relaxation and outdoor activities. The Health Sciences Campus focuses on medical, dental, nursing, and pharmacy programs.
Overall, you can expect a blend of lively, bustling areas and calmer, spread-out areas across the WVU campuses.
