WXTJ-LP is a Freeform formatted broadcast radio station licensed to and serving Charlottesville, Virginia, owned and operated by the University of Virginia.

WXTJ-LP was founded by the staff of WTJU (91.1 FM) in 2013 as a response to low and declining student involvement at WTJU, the university's long-established station. WXTJ is now entirely administered and programmed by students, with WTJU's staff providing only studio space and technical support.{{cite web|last1=Mullany|first1=Will|title=Student Radio Station WXTJ To Begin Broadcasting On FM|url=https://news.virginia.edu/content/student-radio-station-wxtj-begin-broadcasting-fm|website=UVA Today|date=30 June 2015}}

The station first went live on the Internet in the fall of 2013 under the fictitious callsign WTJX. A planned Part 15 AM transmitter on 1620 kHz while the station raised money for an FM signal was publicized, but never materialized. WXTJ gained its current callsign as a side effect of applying for an LPFM license in 2015. Although the suffixed callsign WTJX-LP is not in use, FCC rules require approval if any station is already using the base callsign – in this case, WTJX-TV of Charlotte Amalie, U.S. Virgin Islands, which expressed its opposition.{{cite web|last1=Waits|first1=Jennifer|title=College Radio News Round-Up and LPFM Update|url=http://www.radiosurvivor.com/2013/11/29/college-radio-survivor-college-radio-news-round-up-and-lpfm-update/|website=Radio Survivor|date=29 November 2013}}
