Being ranked regionally is a joke. National or nothing.

It is better than Marshall but it is still not a good school.

Put it this way if the school is in WV and the name isn't WVU it isn't good.

Yeah! Wheeling Jesuit is ranked #6 in the South for colleges! University of Charleston is ranked #14. West Virginia Wesleyan is ranked #16 and there are others.

Btw the difference between regional colleges, regional universities, and national universities are the number of programs offered for undergraduate and graduate programs offered. They don't compare quality of education between those 3.

Yeah that is terrible. I wouldn't choose #1 in the south regionally.

Terrible schools, the ones in WV, except WVU.
