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!
Great over the phone service! I called several times and they were always eager to help. The thing I liked most about them was that they were never pushy! I called several other schools inquiring more information about their programs and several of them put me on the spot with their questions. Other schools' over the phone service, seemed as if they were getting commission from the phone calls. Liberty University never made me feel awkward on the phone. They waited until I wanted to take the next step and were ready to help when I was. I couldn't have been more pleased with their service.
My experience with Liberty University was beyond my expectations! At LU, one is able to make great connections in a diverse environment. The campus itself is its' own small town and that gave me a very home-like feeling when I went to visit the campus. There are a lot of different things to do around campus when it comes too wanting to go out and do something with friends. The students and faculty are very helpful and very friendly. The environment is very neutral and there is no competition with anyone. The campus and student life was what allowed me to see and understand LUs' mission and goal. I had a great time and what will always be a favorite memory to me visiting LU.
