This is the night when you’ll truly learn what it means to be a Mountaineer. You’ll have the opportunity to step foot on Mountaineer Field in Milan Puskar Stadium, sign your “Class of 2027” flag, watch the Pride of West Virginia perform its pregame show, meet new friends and, of course, get your official class photo taken in the state of West Virginia. You’ll receive your official class T-shirt after the event, too.

Catch the live stream of the event here.

Transportation: Students living on the Evansdale area of campus should walk to the football stadium and enter the field through the southwest tunnel. Students living on the Downtown area of campus will travel to and from the football stadium via buses. Buses will begin leaving lot ST-10 (near the Life Sciences Building on University Avenue) at 6:45 p.m. After the event, Downtown residents will board buses outside the stadium for the return trip to ST-10.  

Doors to the event open at 7 p.m. There will be activities on the field until the program begins at 8:30 p.m. Students will enter through the southwest tunnel of the stadium.

The clear bag policy will be enforced.

Large crowd support notice: If you traditionally have struggled with big crowds and large group situations, the University is providing an opportunity for students to still participate in our Class of 2027 photo without having to be in such a crowded space. Please share your information with us by noon on Monday, August 14, and we'll provide you with directions on how to take advantage of this opportunity. https://wvu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_8pKkSN9N8nxmMLA
