I feel like I'm learning a lot at LU. Every teacher I've had here is an excellent teacher and genuinely cared about their students. Most of the classes are good yet challenging. You can expect to put in many study hours. However, there are several freshman classes that are complete filler.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
I love the atmosphere. Most of the people are extremely friendly and nice. I felt welcomed and accepted as soon as I went to LU. Also, there are many events on campus, such as ice-skating, football games, basketball games, intramural sports, snowboarding, skiing, paintball, concerts... you get the idea! And most of the events are free which is awesome for a poor college student. But on the other hand, if you're looking for a typical college experience, you will not find it at Liberty. Liberty is private Christian university, so drinking is banned. The rules here are pretty strict, such as 3 second hugs, no kissing, no R-rated movies, no dancing... the list goes on. Honestly, they sound pretty rough, but most of the time, you really don't mind them. Instead, you have to be creative to have fun, and it can get pretty crazy!
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
When I first heard about Liberty, I thought I'd never have the money to go there because it's an out-of-state, private, Christian university. However, it's not bad at all! I have friends who are at state schools that are paying more than I am. Liberty gives out many scholarships for little things like applying early, for how many years you've gone there in a row, having a pastor... Most of the scholarships are around $500 to $1000, but every little bit helps!
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
-Apply early. Liberty gives out scholarships based on how early you apply.
-Make sure you know the Liberty Way. If you don't think that you can deal with it, don't apply.
-For campus housing, there's several different types. If you like being around people, try to live in the Circle or the Hill. If you can't deal with being around people all the time, try to get on Campus East.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
-Someone who desires to get closer with God.
-Someone who wants an excellent, yet affordable education.
-Someone who doesn't mind trying to be creative to have fun.
-Someone who can deal with having rules to follow.
