In all fairness, this site required me to check all stars and as an online student I truly couldn’t rate some but was forced to.
I’m close to a BS degree but I’m seriously thinking about moving to a different college. I’m in my thirties and married with children as well as having a full time job and can say honestly most teachers do not care and are not clear with work. If you plan to become a pastor in the bible belt by all means go to this school but the only thing I have been semi-impressed with is the financial aid department being on top of things.
Good Luck everyone!
I was finally driven off the plank this week when I received an email 3 semesters later from admissions that they still don’t have my official transcripts, when I personally sent them 2 times via USPS, and they have my unofficial transcripts. I had to BEG them to order my transcripts because they placed a hold on my account, preventing me from registering for classes until they are received. Well, it is late for registration as is for the next semester and they do not care. After many email complaints, no one there has yet to offer to lift a finger to get on the phone and order the one transcript they are still waiting on. So, it appears that my time with Liberty is up, because if I do not register for summer courses, I am then in default on my student loan, as I must remain enrolled PT for federal aid. THEY COULD CARE LESS. Rather than be helpful and close the matter out, someone decided to take the time in the admissions office that is, to send me an email that my correspondence has been “ungodly and harsh,” and that “I need to be mindful that they are a religious university and they do not tolerate such emails.” This is after I have WAITED 3 SEMESTERS AS IS – PATIENTLY SO, and I had to take my time to deal with the matter when it should have been dealt with upon enrollment. For as long as it took admissions to send me this ridiculous email (as if I am some child they are scolding) – they could have ordered my transcript and removed the block from my registration, but they continue to choose to be difficult, scolding me in the process as a paying customer as if I have no options. The final kabang with this whole saga is that the one transcript they did enter was entered with NO GRADES. They have my courses transferred over as “P” for “pass” without the grades I received for each, which is most of my GPA. I am not transferring credits over without receiving credit for my hard work – most are A’s and I am supposed to get no credit? CRAZY. According to Liberty University, the only GRADES that matter are the ones from them, which AREN’T GOOD due to the overall b.s. This is unethical and I am complaining. I AM DONE! BUH BYE LIBERTY UNVERSITY – WHAT A TOTAL SCAM AND JOKE OF AN INSTITUTION YOU WANKERS. If you think me INQUIRING ABOUT WHY MY TRANSCRIPTS WERE NEVER ENTERED was “Ungodly,” wait until you read my complaint that I am sending to the Department of Education. JERKS.
I will be graduating with an Ed. Specialist from here in the Spring. Having attended 4 major universities within my college career, this is by far the worst! They have inconsistent grading policies. For example, they set up a point system for a final grade, then you find out that even though you have achieved enough points to make an “A”, the points are weighted and you actually have a “B”. Assignment expectations are always unclear at best. Instructors are somewhat disinterested in their students and grading is very subjective. The registration process is disorganized and advisors do not know what the class requirements are prior to offering them to students. This resulted in me being forced to take two internship courses, which are more expensive than your general course. The advisor that I spoke with never told me that I was signing up for a practicum course when I was selecting an elective for my last course. I am stuck taking it because add/drop period ends a week before you can view your course information online and therefore I cannot change. This lack of communication and organization is classic Liberty.
I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND!!!
The one way that is balanced is the school is growing so fact they have accidentally hired some professors that are great. Ask other students who they have liked, who makes them work, read…is published. I have found, for the most part, that the professors most people don’t like (usually because they rocked a student’s ship a little too much) are the ones I have enjoyed the most.
There are tons of things to do on campus as far as activities go. LU treats recruitment like a business–the more fun things for students, the higher enrollment will be. Some are concerned academic quality suffers under such a model…but I suppose it depends on what LU’s goal is…numbers or quality. You decide.
Not many places to spend time with a boyfriend/girlfriend if that is something you want or need. You can venture off campus, but there isn’t too much in Lynchburg outside restaurants.
Suggestion: Life your first year on campus, then move off. You’ll save money, and have a much different experience being out in the community with real people.
