<p>Think of it this way.</p>
<p>According to this link from the WVU website
<a href=“http://www.arc.wvu.edu/admissions/urequire_main.html#Anchor-Additiona-5328[/url]”>http://www.arc.wvu.edu/admissions/urequire_main.html#Anchor-Additiona-5328</a></p>
<p>To be considered for admission as an OOS applicant (Does not guarentee admission)</p>
<p>Nonresidents must have at least a 2.25 grade-point average and either an ACT composite score of 20 or a combined verbal and math SAT score of 950.</p>
<p>Obviously, you will be considered for admission.</p>
<p>Now scroll down the page and look at the admissions requirements for certain programs and go to the journalism program</p>
<p>Perley Isaac Reed School of Journalism
**Direct admission to the School of Journalism is based on ACT/SAT scores and high school GPA.</p>
<pre><code> Students must have the following:
o Un-weighted High School GPA of 2.50
o ACT English Score of 22 or SAT Verbal score of 520
</code></pre>
<p>Obviously, if have the stats to be admitted directly into a certain program (Even if it’s not the program you want) Then you stand a pretty good chance at general u-grad admissions.</p>
