Lebanon Valley excels in all of its programs! As I am currently planning on majoring in Physical Therapy, I will continue onto the next phase of graduate study in only 3 years! This school cuts off one entire year of schooling, condenses it, but challenges students even more! Some other friends are taking math classes here, and although it is hard, they are all so happy with their education they are receiving! My classes overall are definitely tough as well, but this college gives you such a great education, especially with all of the general education requirements that need to be met.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
I was truly nervous before I came to this school, but now I never want to leave! I was definitely unsure if I'd like my roommate, but she is so awesome! It's great because they actually give thought to the students they put to live together at this college, unlike large universities where it is random. All the people on my floor are my best friends now, we have bonded greatly! There is always something to do on campus too, whether it be a comedian on Fridays, a band playing at MJ's, fun fitness classes, or something else the college has planned, everybody always has a blast! At LVC, they have a Redbook where you can sign up for weekend events such as Hershey Park, a hayride, and even a FREE Jordin Sparks concert!
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
The college is a bit pricey compared to many in-state schools, but compared to most private colleges, LVC gives great scholarships. If you are in the top 10% of your class, you receive half off of your tuition! Even then, those who graduate in the top 20% receive one-third off of tuition, and those in the top 30% receive one-fourth off of tuition! The education, again, is just awesome. I have learned so much in just one semester that most of my friends going to public universities have not in the same courses!
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
I would recommend keeping your grades up even throughout your senior year--Don't get lazy! Also, come up to visit LVC! In the spring they have Valleyfest which is a weekend filled with games, art, and a concert! It's great to have fun with friends, or bring up the whole family! Also, come visit during class and sit in on a lecture to see what the feel really is and if this small campus truly suits you!
Which types of students will excel at your college?
If you live in a small-town, Annville will feel like home to you. It's also nice for people who like to sleep a lot, since, unlike large campuses, LVC is about a 3 minute walk to any class. So in case you like to sleep in until 7:55 on a morning when you have an 8:00 class, you can still make it! Also, LVC has a variety of great food choices, so if you like to eat, this is the school for you!
