Establishing West Virginia Residency

Please read WVU’s policy regarding Residency Status for Admissions, Tuition, and Fee Purposes. It can be very difficult to change your residency while enrolled in law school. 

If you have any questions about reclassifying your residency, please refer to WVU’s Residency Reclassification page and/or contact WVU’s Residency Officer (contact information can be found at the bottom of the Residency Reclassification page).
