    The price tag is a bit startling, but if you truly want to go here, do not let it scare you away from attending. LVC offers great scholarships and financial aid. In the end, It cost the same amount for me to attend LVC as it would have if I had chose to attend a state school. Also the price is worth it! Just from visiting, I could tell that the environment of the school was much better than other colleges that I had visited. Many of the professors are absolutely amazing! They really care about getting to know you and helping you academically and personally, which can be rare at other schools.

    I'd give it 4 1/2 if I could. Really enjoying my time here so far! The department I'm in, while small, is great and I feel like they will be able to set me up for success. It feels like the school actually does care about me as a student and an athlete. The campus is beautiful but FINISH THE BRIDGE.

    Overall enjoying my time here so far!
    My experience at LVC has been extremely positive and worthwhile. I feel that I have grown so much since beginning my higher education there in August 2018. I credit this growth entirely to the environment that LVC has put me in, both academically and socially. I have been been surrounded by some of the best professors in the country who truly care about the success of their students. The few changes that I would make includes more diverse classes to choose from and improvements made to the food and on-campus housing. With these changes, LVC can be the top college in America.
