Things I Wish I Knew Before Coming to WVU:

What a Mountaineer is.

Where the bookstores are: there is one bookstore in Towers and one right next to the Mountainlair.

Culture change: Morgantown is less industrialized than other big cities. The culture change can be difficult for some people who come from urban areas.

Meeting roommates: It is difficult coming to a new school and living with someone in a dorm whom you have never met. Its nice to have more contact with them before moving in together.

Campus familiarity: getting to know what WVU's campuses are like and what they have to offer before coming here is a huge advantage.
