I'm a sophomore this year. Here's what Welcome Week was like for me last year: Friday: - Honors Move-In - Honors Picnic: free food and a bunch of outdoor activities, it was in the short-term lot near the Student Recreation Center but I can't remember if there was something similar downtown Saturday - General Move-In - Honors Retreat: Honors students go to the Mountainlair, get free breakfast, and are welcomed to WVU and the honors program by Honors College faculty; after the general info we are split into groups based on our HONR 298O classes and go outside to the green/plaza to meet our classmates and mentors - Welcome Picnic: not-free food (you have to use a dining plan swipe to eat), a bunch of indoor and outdoor activities in/around Student Recreation Center, unsure if there is something similar downtown Sunday: - Navigate WVU: welcome presentation by student life going over campus safety/rules/etc, pretty boring and not too much stuff we didn't already know, my RAs took us on a campus tour after this session as I believe many other floors/dorms did - Student Org Fair: pretty self-explanatory, I didn't go to this and really regret it - MovieFest: free movie at the Coliseum Monday: - Adventure/Service Activity: doing something with Adventure WV or helping out with a service project, I did a service activity called Harvest Time at the WVU Organic Farm where I dug potatoes for 3 hours while getting to know another student, hands-down one of the best ways I've ever gotten to know someone - Monday Night Lights: a bunch of activities on Mountaineer Field, some awesome speakers (President Gee; Provost Reed; the Mountaineer; the football, mens basketball, and womens soccer coaches), the band does their pregame show then makes the state and new students fill the state in for a picture, we sing Country Roads, then out of the stadium to get free pizza and a Welcome Week T-shirt Note: The Sunday and Monday schedules are for students living in Evansdale dorms. If I had lived in a downtown or Sunnyside dorm, Navigate WVU and my Adventure/Service Activity would have traded places. Tuesday: - Academic session with your college - FoodFest: free food from food trucks, the website said you get two meal credits but I only got one credit for whatever reason - FallFest: huge music festival Note: When you are at FoodFest and FallFest, be prepared to deal with people who are drunk and/or high Wednesday: classes start

Lmao. "Honors this honors that" " you have to deal with people who are drunk or high" buddy, youre SUPPOSED to be the one drunk or high. Get off your honors high horse. If you dont wanna be drunk and high dont go to WVU

Welcome week changed so much even withing 15years lol. Our classes always started on Monday. Orientation was always on Saturday and Sunday. Fall fest was on Monday and we didn't have monday night lights or whatever it is called. Our welcome week lasted a full week lol

Monday Night Lights Is Definitely A Favorite

Ooo I love the blue in your hair !!!

Operation Move In Students Also Have The Luxury Of Moving In Early

Great video. I’m older but at our fall fests I remember one year was black eyed peas and another year was Kanye West.

No freakin way

I’m going to be so sad if welcome week doesn’t happen this year :(

I'm going to be a sophomore next year and the orientation to your major was a bit different. You usually get a scheduled time for your exact major and not your whole college and it's fairly short maybe an hour and no food haha. Just mostly talking and we did a scavenger hunt for important places for my major.

I'm a sophomore this year, and my academic session was just a presentation by my advisor. Granted, I'm in Statler College where there is a completely separate advising center for freshmen. No food, no scavenger hunt, just going into a lecture hall, watching a presentation, and leaving the lecture hall.

I hope the virus doesn't affect the fall semester 😩

What about undecided majors?

Can anyone come to welcome week or is it just for the students that attending WVU

Dumb Question, where does one go to make new friends and whatnot? I'm transferring from another school and know absolutely nobody, and anyway to meet people over the summer or before the fall semester begins. I'll be staying at the Lofts so I won't be walking up and down the dorms lol

Wallaby nah you ain’t an oddball. I was a freshman this past year and I loved every minute of it. You’ll find your crowd, there’s so many things to do on campus along with sporting events and partying. It’s an amazing place and you’ll love it

hi how quickly did you make friends?

Hey. I applied to WVU as an international student in early December. I have a GPA of 3.8 and a sat score of 1150(I only took it once). I didn't get an acceptance letter yet but I got the WVU student ID and portal and MIX email ten days ago. I also paid the academic and housing deposits and also booked a dorm in dadisman. How do I know if I'm actually accepted? Please let me know
