Hello, my name is Amoni Lewis and I am at sophomore at Lincoln University. My major is Journalism and my experience has been amazing so far. The students are so welcoming and the faculty and staff does the best to make your college experience easier. There are so many organizations on campus that you could join. I love how the tutoring here is free of charge and the Page Library is open until 12 am. It shows that the university wants the best for their students and wants everyone to succeed.

I love being apart of the nursing program! Parking is terrible and there isn't much to do around campus. However the classes offered are high quality! Would recommend to anyone who wants to commute from home. But I would not live on campus.
Lincoln University is a great college, there could be a few things that I would change but not many. Then Campus is growing, more and more students are coming to the college. And the life for a college student seems to be the highlight of living in Jefferson City home of Lincoln Univ. It is an accredited academy and it's defiantly looks good a resume.
