The price and campus atmosphere set this school apart.

christ centered education that relates to the world today.

It is a Christian school in the top 10 rank for education and is price/cost friendly and they offered a degree that utilized my other degree and college credits that really helped me get my Bachelor's degree quickly.

Susan

Something unique is that we pray before every class starts.

Chelsea

One unique thing about my school is that Liberty has a fast growing worship department where you are taught how to be a worship leader and how to be on a worship team and LU has over 6 different traveling worship teams with an amazing professional sound and everyone loves them.

Megan

I think the most unique thing about the school is the degree to which the faculty and staff care for the students. The professors care deeply about the students and are interested in their lives more than just the educational aspects. The administration also very often provides new ideas for the school to give the students a unique college experience unlike those of the traditional universities with things such as a year-round ski slope.

Larry

Liberty University has one of the best on-line formats in the world. A student taking classes in a distance format can be assured that they are receiving the same quality of education as a student sitting in the classroom. I chose LU because of their flexibility. I can take semesters worth of classes in an 8 week format and complete the required work in my own time. If I need to view a lecture at midnight, to accommodate my schedule, it is not a problem. An added bonus is that Liberty gives its military students a $400 book voucher.

Stephen

Liberty University is a school, dedicated to the values of Christianity. Everything that you are taught is from a Christian perspective and it is the goal of the Professors to see you grow and mature in Christ. While providing you with a quality education, you're spiritual walk means just as much as your academics.

Elizabeth

Liberty allows you to get a very good education while serving, worshiping, and discovering God. It has one of the best nursing programs in the state and is very competative. There are many things to do at Liberty, including Snowflex , a full- size artificial ski slope, an ice skating rink, a huge gym, and over 7 different places to eat. Liberty currently educates about 12000 students. Shenandoah University, the school I almost went to, teaches only about 4000 students. Its nursing program is very unstable and there is almost nothing to do there.

Felicia

Two of the most unique attributes to Liberty is it's founded on Biblical principles and the Online, Distance Learning Program. I compared other schools and actually have attended others but this school offers the exact program of study that is unique to my career as well as ministry goals beyond school.

Melissa

Everyone and everything is very uplifting and supportive. It is an amazing experience to be surrounded by so many Christians whose love is evident in the way they live and act. The professors actually take the time to get to know their students and care about each one.

Gillian

Compared to the other private Christian schools I looked at, Liberty University is much bigger. There are higher ranking sports, academic programs, and more opportunities in general. It is a very well balanced school - there is importance placed on academics, sports, social acitivites, and spiritual growth. It is unique because it very, very balanced even though it is quite a large school compared to the other schools I looked at.

Peter

The biggest difference from other colleges, that I found when first visiting the campus, is the obvious community between the students. There is a care emminating from Liberty students that does not show up almost anywhere else. It is because the students who attend Liberty University are genuinely kind and truly love being involved with such a remarkable university.

Amanda

Liberty holds some of the most friendly people in the U.S. It is not difficult to make friends here at all, and there is always something going on. Other campuses may be more academically competitive, or focused on getting into a fraternity or sororiety, but at Liberty, students care more about being there for their friends, making sure they are doing what God wants them to do with their life, and having a good time without doing things they will regret like alcohol, drugs, and sex. We focus on school, but there is more to life than an A.

Shana

The reason I chose Liberty University is that this university has an online program that offers the major I desire. In addition, Liberty University has an excellent reputation for providing an excellent education. As a young, single, mother, I needed a college that accomodate my need to care for my infant son while still receiving a degree in criminal justice.

Laurie

I did not consider any other schools. Liberty University was the only school I wanted to go to.

Rachel

My school is one of the largest Conservative Christian Schools in America. Open to all who are interested, offers scholarships to help those in need, and offers a variety of clubs and NCAA sports.

Christy

At Liberty University you will find a Christian environment. Many people look at Liberty as a school where you will not have any fun, but the truth is Liberty is one of the most fun school's in Virginia! Speaking of fun, college is much more than "having fun". It is much more than the parties that everyone crave to seek when choosing a college. At Liberty University, we party as a school for Jesus. We meet everyone Monday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings and have Convocation. Also, in each class the professor prays for you and your classmates.

Jesse

I selected Liberty University because it is ranked among top three for online courses and becasuse of it's beleive in religion. It keeps you inform daily events and the professors are one of a kind. I have been away from school for over 20 years and wnated to get my degree. I am having so much fun going back to school and working. Just need some help on paying school to keep my dream come true.

Kevin

Teachers and students really care and try to help each other.

Annqunett

What is unique is that I attend college online where if I find a job that does not work with my schooling I can still get my degree , then login in after work to forfill what is needed for my studies without infering with my job, kids, or volunteer work. So right now online college is right fore me.

Shawn

quite, peaceful, boring, nothing to do, repetitive, laid back, lame, nothing to do one certain days, nice, funny, long, gay, stupid.

Asherah

Liberty University was the only Christian University I applied to. Many students are not comfortable attending a school that has rules. I find that, although sometimes they are annoying, the rules at this school help to provide a safe, clean and comfortable environment that wouldn't be possible otherwise. Maintaning this atmosphere of peace, beauty and love is most certainly worth a few rules.

Shandra

Firstly, most important to an incoming student , is their financial aid package. They are VERY generous, and the financial aid office helps you find every possible scholarship that you could qualify for to help lower the cost. Second, there is a sense of spirit here that I have not seen at any other college. Everyone is excited to be here and we show it by supporting every aspect of our school- the sports teams, drama performances, and various other clubs. I have never seen such a commitment to success or such a large school working as a team, in unity.

Neema

Liberty University is a Christian college. At LU I get the oppurtunity to earn my degree while building my faith. For anyone who is interested in being a Christian enviroment while getting their degree LU is one of the best place they could consider. I also highly recomend LU for those who would like to find out more about the Christian faith and what it is all about. At LU they will have the chance to learn about it and explore it for themselves while getting quality education.

Jonathan

It is a Christian school I love it! we are allowed to voice our views about issues and still get along with each other. The girls are FINE! Dry campus means you can have fun without drinking.

Joshua

Liberty University is unique in that it has its own ski slope, is the largest evangelical university, good athletics, extemely friendly student body and faculty, and it is close to the beach and Washington D.C.

Christopher

Compared to other school I believe my school is unique with its christian student body where people are so friendly and so willin to help.Another thing that I believe that makes are school unique is the athletics and also the enviroment of lynchburg Va is very nice and sociable

Mary

It's a large conservative Christian university and the most important thing is placing God as the focus.

Sean

The christian atmosphere which positively builds each student up and works to make them better and smarter. Liberty University doesn't hold grudges against students, the faculty work to help the students, whatever level they are on.

Sarah

They provide a fun environment that does not have to be all about negative things. Also, they always have campus activities of all types to interest everyone!

Devon

Diversity, we have over 80 countries and all 50 states represented.

Joshua

My school has a strong heart for God. Each and every class starts with prayer. Convocation, or chapel occurs each and every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. While you are being challenged academically you are also being challenged spiritually. Each professor on campus cares for the well-being of their students.

KarisJoy

This school is accepting of almost everything, but yet has standards/rules to keep you out of trouble. While they've stopped the enrollment numbers from climbing any higher, the range of activities, sports and facilities is continually widening. The on-campus transportation is a great addition. There are many quiet study areas and wireless internet on pretty much the entire campus so you can study outside or in your dorm. Has campus-wide convocation three times a week for further instruction, special speakers and announcements.

Dana

My school represents the Lord and gives us a Chrisitian atmosphere to go to school. We are focused on God here and do not have to worry about drinking, smoking and the other things that go on at other schools. We have chapel service 3 times a week to keep us guided toward Christ.

janice

they really care andmake sure you are on task

Katelyn

Liberty is unique because the school teaches you ways to live and helps you with finding your career after graduation. It doesn't just educate you and hope you do ok after you graduate.

Nicole

The Christian enviroment and just all the diversity on campus. how you can be walking to class and start hearing people speaking other languages and just spending time with each other

Laura

The spiritual atmostphere is incredible. And it's a place of logic, reason, and intelligence- it's a christian college, but the professors will make sure you understand exactly what the Bible says and why; you're not allowed to answer questions with 'just because' or 'God said so'. it's challenging on both the spiritual, mental, and emotional levels (plus physical if you're into sports). You WILL leave this university a better person.

Victoria

You can take classes online DLP. You can do this for just about all the programs they offer. It is a Christian based school so if you are Christian you may love it here. I take classes through DLP so I have no on campus experience.

Amaris

Since my school is a Christian school it has convocations three times a week. It is very open and free to express our religion there. The school is calm and relaxing and has amazing school spirit. Our school also has amazing facilities that are being donated every year for the students learning experience and enjoyment.

Benjamin

Our school is the largest evangelical university in the world, with a prime goal of training young leaders to go out and impact the world for what is right! It has the best religion department around with professors who will drop what they are doing to help their students.

Amanda

The entire faculty truly cares about you and wants to see you succeed and grow spiritually.

Jessica

This school has a great Distance Learning Program which enables me to complete all of my courses online. Not many Christian schools offer this great program (or if they do, they do not offer my major - Psychology/Counseling).

Michael

We're a Christian University!

Katie

Liberty U is a Christ Centered University. Life long learning is priority. Helping students find their God given talents, gifts, and special abilities is one of their goals too. Liberty at Lynchburg, Virginia is a wonderful and exciting place to learn.

Joshua

Liberty University's primary focus is the spiritual growth of it's students. Being the world's largest evangelical Christian university, students and staff alike are determined to minister to one another! Liberty's mission is to train and develop champions for Christ, with a quality education comparable to those of Ivy-League schools!
