We Believe...

• Quality academics are essential. Liberty’s Christian professors are experienced professionals who care about their students’ personal lives and academics. 
   
• Diversity is part of a quality education. Liberty enrolls students from all 50 states and over 70 countries, allowing you a truly world-class education on a global campus.
    
• Personal growth should also be part of the college experience.  Liberty’s campus life encourages healthy habits and wholesome relationships.  Our campus is tobacco and alcohol-free, with single-sex dorms. 
     
• You should feel safe on campus. We are ranked in the top 16% nationwide of safest college campuses by college experts Niche.com due to low crime rates and programs designed to keep your well-being and safety a top priority. 

• Practical experience is an essential part of career preparation. Internships, campus employment, and community service are all part of the Liberty experience. Students work with the same state-of-the-art resources in the classroom as they will on the job.

• Learn from world leaders. Liberty hosts accomplished individuals from all walks of life, including government, athletics, and entertainment, to speak at Convocation, a twice-weekly gathering of young people.  Convocation is a vital feature of your Liberty education.

• Healthy and balanced living is a necessary part of a quality education.  Our food service consistently ranks as one of the best on any college campus in the U.S., with options to fit many dietary needs and preferences. You can also exercise with various equipment at our fitness center to maintain a balanced lifestyle.
   
• Finances should not be a barrier.  Liberty has frozen residential tuition for the past six years, demonstrating its commitment to making world-class Christian education accessible for as many as possible.  All international students pursuing a bachelor’s degree will receive institutional aid.
