Liberty is a great Christian university for those who are religious and non-religious alike. While the rules can feel a little overbearing at times, the main focus of the school is to cultivate well-rounded students with an acceptable education, critical thinking skills, and communication skills. Many activities available to students including a vast array of high level sports teams, concerts, recreation centers, a fitness center with the best equipment, all at a relatively affordable price. All individuals getting ready to earn a degree should seriously consider this university!
Both my parents and some of my relatives are alumni of Liberty University.
I had never actually planned to come here because I wanted to attend a small college close to home (IL), but during one of my visits to Liberty, I absolutely fell in love with the place; I knew I had to come here.
Whether you're Christian or not, Liberty is a wonderful school. They're "Training Champions for Christ," they don't want you to just "get by," they want you to excel.
There is of course a variety in professors and teaching style, but over all I have found that the professors are willing to help and care about our individual success. Not just academically, but also mentally, physically, socially/relationally, spiritually...
One professor gives his number to the whole class incase we need to talk to someone. And, one of my nursing professors offered for us to come to her office any time, and if we needed anything from sanitary pads to a bag of chips, she has them.
I love this place!

I am in my first year of attending online college through Liberty University. It has been an exciting year in getting to know your classmates and instructors. The instructors and advisors are so helpful in explaining the information and always lending a helpful hand. The staff are courteous, loving and they do show the love of Christ! I am encouraged on a daily basis by e-mails and discussion posts by my instructors and fellow classmates. I am truly blessed to have found Liberty University and am looking forward to graduation to hug and shake the hands of the staff!
