Location and Lifestyle

Our campus is in the heart of the city's business district, providing easy access to business leaders as well as a vibrant lifestyle. Have coffee in the morning with your mentor, walk down the street to your classes, meet friends for dinner and shopping, all within close reach of our campus. You will enjoy the benefits of a small town feel with big city sensibilities.

The Graduate School of Business occupies the second floor of The Equities House, which is home to some of West Virginia's most assertive entrepreneurs who are engaged in aggressively merging, acquiring, and growing businesses in multiple sectors. Students are an integral part of business start-ups. You will be exposed to venture capital, mergers and acquisitions, and domestic and international business development.

Plenty of apartment housing is located in the city's historic district nearby. Or students may choose to live in the residence halls on UC's main campus about two miles away. Information about on-campus housing.

Charleston is served by the Kanawha Rapid Transit bus system, C&H Taxi, Amtrak train service, and Yeager airport, about 10 minutes from campus. UC also maintains a shuttle service from our main campus to downtown and other locations.
