Do WV residents have a better chance of being admitted to a WV state school than a non-resident?
Yes. All three state medical schools have a legislated mandate to admit state residents almost exclusively. There are exceptions, but the rule is fairly rigid. Private schools, such as the University of Charleston Pharmacy School, receive no state money, so they may admit anyone they choose. These schools are, however, rather expensive compared to a state school’s tuition and fees.
