Policy concerning students who are involuntarily activated for military service
A reservist called to active duty during the first four weeks is not charged tuition and fees and is given a full refund. A call to duty between the 5th and 11th week will result in incomplete grades which can be made up at a later date. Beginning with the 12th week, grades will be issued to the reservists.

Why this school is an excellent choice for military members
West Liberty University provides a quality education in a safe and caring environment. We are able to do this and still remain affordable. 89% of our students receive some type of financial aid assistance. This year marked the six consecutive year we have had an increase in enrollment. West Liberty has a dedicated staff and faculty. We are the oldest institution of higher education in the state of West Liberty (founded in 1837). West Virginia has traditionally been one of the leading states in citizens volunteering for the armed forces. Our rural campus is attractive to veterans looking for a higher education.
