I absolutely loved the gorgeous campus and the kind people the greeted me on this campus! The education is very high quality, and the dorms are so welcoming to new students. Each building is unique and the view is amazing since we are in the mountains. They offer many great majors that are Christ-focused and prepares the students to server Christ with a Biblical mindset, not matter your major. One thing I would say they could change is the lack of storage on campus as there are many out-of-state students who have to make ends meet elsewhere. Overall it is a great school and a great community!
I have been attending Clarks Summit University for three years, and I've been associated with the school for almost seven years. I love the community built here with the students, faculty, and the local community! The school helps prepare its students to be Christ-centered through our academics, church, and small group life and career-ready by extending our education from the confines of the campus into the local community where we are giving opportunities to learn, serve and grow.
The only thing I would change about the school is adding language courses given on campus. Currently, we have to travel a short distance off-campus to take credited a language course.

I did not take any classes exclusively online; however, it was quite common to take quizzes online, and engage in student discussions through the Schools portal. It was not uncommon for professors to engage and escalate discussions past what was appropriate for academic discussion. This was especially common in religious classes. It was not uncommon for this behavior to bleed into the classroom as well. Sometimes these discussions would ascend into full on arguments that would never be tolerated in a normal classroom. As a rule, the online activities were clearly an afterthought, probably due to the high workloads most of the professors already had.
