A student who submits a letter of withdrawal during any semester is entitled to a refund of the semester's tuition and fees according to the following percentages, providing full tuition and fees have been paid.

Each first-year student must provide his or her own medical dissecting kit that is approved by the Anatomy Department. At the bookstore students may also purchase their lab coats and heavy rubber aprons that are used in the Gross Anatomy Laboratory. The West Virginia School of Osteopathic Medicine recognizes that financing a medical education is a costly investment. While we expect students to make every effort to finance their education, we anticipate that students will need extra help to complete their program without undue hardship. The West Virginia School of Osteopathic Medicine operates under a positive program of non-discrimination to ensure equal opportunity to all students and applicants regardless of race, sex, creed, color or national origin.
