Although this school does teach a fairly rigorous curriculum and there are a lot of good professors there, they do not respect freedom of speech nor civil rights. I am an honor student and was pursuing this degree but when I experienced my civil rights being violated, I filed a complaint against the school. Sad to say, I was threatened by the student affairs office for doing so, which amounts to no civil rights or freedom of speech. Just warning everyone, if you want to freely express your academic and collegiate thoughts at this school and want to "earn" your degree in the process, then forget about it as they will throw you out illegally for doing what the U.S. Constitution says you have a right to do. In other words, Liberty University does not recognize Federal Supremacy laws, which is sad as they pretend to be their own state of laws, which again violates the separation of Church and State. If after reading this you decide to attend anyway, then I will pray you make it through and graduate.

I have read some of the posts in this forum. Some of the issues I have read are total misrepresentations. I have had no problem with advising, financial aid, life credit evaluations, and the professors will work with Military folks very well. As far as adding Christian values into all classes...It is a Christian private college, and should have been expected. (not sure why anyone would make comments about that portion of the online school) As with any college choice, do your research and make sure it is right for you. I have had a wonderful experience. Online classes are not easy, and you must be willing to put in the time and effort. I had 2 professors out of numerous classes since 2011 that were not quick to respond to emails or questions, but they did respond with good advice/answers. Awesome online program if you are willing to put in the work. I would no respect a program or college that's online courses are a joke or too easy. Liberty is not a degree mill school !!!

I am a older adult that desired to finish my college degree. I have attended 5 other colleges only to drop out because of being lost with little or no support. The staff at Liberty made it easy to transfer all of my credits and to get me started on my educational path. The instructors are very caring and encouraging. It is also nice to have an instructor or staff member to pray with you when you feel down. I love Liberty University. I am very sad that I am nearly done with my degree.

I used Liberty to finish my Bachelor's of Science degree. I took 30 credits through them. Like any online/distance learning program you need to be self-motivated and able to read a lot and teach yourself a lot of information. The courses were difficult, as they should be. Professors were helpful and always available via email or phone. The administrative staff was amazing and responsive. You never spoke to the same person twice, but it didn't matter as they were always able to help me out. They have phenomonal programs for Military or ex-Military and spouses with extra support and huge tuition discounts without limitation. I am currently taking my Masters in Business Administration with them now.

I don't know where to start. Liberty University, I thought was a going to be a good online school. I was referred by someone and thought I'd give it try (turns out they didn't like it either). I had no contact from any department there. Reaching admissions seems to be easy but once you're enrolled...forget about it! Whatever department you're trying to reach will take forever, both on the phone and by email. No responses and when they finally do respond it's so long afterward and half the time they don't resolve the issue. I don't know why this school is like this. It was absolutely horrible and discouraging. Students should be able to get important matters taken care of without such delays and confusion. Some financial aid reps seem down right rude and incompetent. If you're going to invest money in your education, you may want to look elsewhere. The blackboard learning system is boring, so if you're not one who likes to consistently read text on the screen all the time in addition to books...find another school. You'd think that it would be updated and a little more engaging, but...it's not. I have seen other lms's that are more interactive. Bottom line, I did not find the staff helpful,you feel disregarded once enrolled, the online learning system is just not right, the process of attending the school was simply not worth and it. It seems affordable but at this point, I wouldn't attend even if the cost of attendance were $50 a credit. I'm sorry I even applied here. What a headache!
