West Virginia median

Six years after enrolling, the median former student who received federal aid reports $28,611 - about 8.5 times one year of the reported net price here. On that ratio the cost is recovered quickly. 79% of students complete within six years, which is high and means the published price is what most students actually pay through to a credential.

Average net price reflects grant and scholarship aid for aided students, not a personal offer. Earnings cover former students who received federal aid; neither measure predicts an individual's outcome.
