The 2024–25 West Georgia Wolves women's basketball team represents the University of West Georgia during the 2024–25 NCAA Division I women's basketball season. The Wolves, led by third-year head coach Joanna Reitz, play their home games at The Coliseum in Carrollton, Georgia as first-year members of the Atlantic Sun Conference.

This season will mark West Georgia's first year of a four-year transition period from Division II to Division I. As a result, the Wolves are currently not eligible to participate in the NCAA tournament until the 2028–29 season.^[1] A pending change to transition rules, scheduled to be voted on by the Division I Council in January 2025, would reduce the transition period to three years.^[2]

Previous season

The Wolves finished the 2023–24 season 16–13, 12–12 in GSC play, to finish in second place.^[3] They were defeated by top-seeded and eventual tournament champions Valdosta State in the quarterfinals of the GSC tournament.^[4]
