Visit Campus

Campus tours will be offered for the summer months starting the week of May 17th until August 13th on Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays at 10am or 1pm with one visitor (family) per time slot. We will not be accepting “walk-in” tours so please register for your tour in advance by using the link below under “Schedule a Tour.”

All visits will consist only of the campus tour and meeting with an Admissions Counselor. Due to COVID-19, we are not able to show any dorm rooms and some classrooms/facilities are restricted. However, after your visit, you will receive an email with links to view videos of our dorms, majors, faculty spotlights and more. If you’d like more information on a major/program, we will provide you with contact information to schedule a virtual appointment with a faculty member.

For more information call, 304.336.8125

  • Limiting your group to the prospective student and no more than two (2) additional family/friends
  • Adhering to social distancing of 6 feet at all times
  • Not visiting if you, or guests, are ill or have been in contact with someone who is ill within the past 14 days
  • By signing up for a tour you agree to follow the guidelines listed here and any updated guidelines issued by WLU, the CDC or the State of West Virginia.

Schedule a Tour

To schedule a tour, CLICK HERE to visit our Events Calendar. On the right side of the page, you can sort by Campus Tour or Virtual. Or click on a date in the calendar to view the options for that day.

Tour Parking
When you arrive on campus you will report to Shaw Hall. Enter the campus through the main gate and it is the brick building with white pillars located directly in front of you. You may park to the left of this building. There are signs for tour parking or visitor parking. You will then cross the street and use the side entrance of the building. Our reception area will be to your left when you enter where we will give you a permit for parking.

Plan Your Visit

The journey of a lifetime starts with your first visit to West Liberty, where you will be greeted by a warm and inviting tree-shaded campus full of excitement. Take a look around, ask questions, grab a bite to eat or schedule an appointment with the Admissions Office for a detailed tour. Nothing provides you with insight about a campus like a visit. Whether you have come to our campus to participate in one of our campus events, are considering making West Liberty part of your academic future, or are here to simply cheer on the Hilltoppers to another victory, you have landed in a special place. West Liberty University is steeped in tradition with a welcoming network of student, faculty, staff and alumni all working together to create an ideal living and learning environment.

Location

West Liberty is located in the serene mountains of West Virginia’s northern panhandle, yet only an hour from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, with shopping, attractions and professional sports teams: Pirates Baseball, Steelers Football and Penguins Hockey. Oglebay Park is a local attraction just five miles from campus featuring championship golf, skiing, a zoo, a planetarium and more.  Also a short drive away is The Highlands, a shopping, dining and entertainment complex in Wheeling, West Virginia.
