From the Institution

Enlightened living, productive work, and community involvement: that's the future the University of Charleston prepares its students to live. Through our Schools of Arts and Sciences, Business and Leadership, and Health Sciences, our students receive the academic background necessary to make a difference in the world. Located in the capital of West Virginia, we have the best views of Charleston and the best access to internships and work experiences you won't find just anywhere. Our NCAA Division II athletic teams excel on the court, the field, and in the classroom, and we are proud to have the most diverse and safe campus in the state of West Virginia. Our students overwhelmingly report that they have had a professor who made them excited about learning, a mentor who encouraged them to pursue their dreams, and professors who cared about them as a person. These relationship-rich experiences ensure that our graduates soar to success after graduation. We invite you to explore more about how UC will do the same for you.
