CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) — Public and private colleges in West Virginia are moving quickly to take in both individual students and entire programs at Mountain State University as that school appeals the loss of its general accreditation, state higher education officials told legislators on Monday.

Officials have also sought to assure the more than 900 Mountain State students who have qualified for state-level financial aid that this aid remains valid and can move with them to another institution, Higher Education Policy Commission Chancellor Paul Hill said.
