Liberty University Top Questions

What should every freshman at Liberty University know before they start?

Andrea

I have gotten a lot of valuable life lessons and information from my college. Because the text book learning that I have gotten I have learned a lot about people, life, and religion that I didn't know. It has been a valuable experience that I am still trying to decide if I love or hate it. Attending this school has also taught me alot about myself.. I have had to change my mindset about certain things about myself and other people. I don't think I would trade the experience because, although it was difficult to adjust, I have made a lot of friends and gained insight on topics I probably would not have thought on my own. The most important thing I have gotten out of the experience was the bibical information that I learned and because the experience was a new one, being away from home for the first time, I have to face my problems and how to properly deal with them.

I have learned to be flexible as I have met people from different backgrounds. I have learned how to organize my thoughts in a clear and concise way. I have learned the value of turning things in on time, showing up for class discussions and communicating thoughtfully with my professors. I have learned to agree to disagree and to be gracious when necessary. I have learned to go to the bathroom if I need to cry. I have learned to be grateful for attention from busy people, both students and teachers. And, I have learned to pack a lunch, because it's hard to find good food at the cafeteria.

I am the youngest of four and I am the first to graduate high school and soon college. I have learn so much about myself, my capabilities, and worth from attending college. Often times I wanted to walk away and find a full time job, however, I pushed through and I almost finish and the feeling cannot be measured. I have gained friends, a wonderful education, and the pride of going beyond the odds.

I have been at Liberty Univeristy for one semester so far, and I love it. The campus, the professors, and the people make the university worthwhile. Liberty's beautiful campus attracted me to it, and I enjoy all the facilities the school has to offer. Also, the professors want to help you succeed and they pray for you. I have learned so much in just one semester. Not only am I being educated, but I am also being encouraged in my Christian walk. Most people at Liberty desire to serve God with their lives, and so it is easy to make good friends who challenge you and encourage you.

So far I have gotten out of my college experience that you do not need to party and drink to have a good time. This University provides so many activites for you to do that are so much fun. So far it has been valuable to attend because they are training you as champions for Christ to be able to go out in the world and still hold true to your Christian values. Not only that, academically it has been great! If you seek a wonderful Christian atmosphere with competitive academics and an awesome sports program, then Liberty University is the place for you.

Julian

Liberty University has taught me to be a man of integrity, and of my word. I have learned many things that will help me in my future and am anxious to learn more so that I can become the man that God wants me to be. The people are friendly, loving, and actually care about you as a person instead of just another student. The campus is beautiful and they are always building something new, because of that visual inspiration, I will never stop building up myself in life and working towards my goals. In the words Mr. Jerry Falwell Sr. “never, ever quit!” and I won’t.

Amanda

The thiing that I got out of my college experience is I have learned things that I will need in the real world while working. I have also met alot of profeesors that can give me life lessons and help me look for a new job when the time is right. They are also good people to ask for as references. It has been valuable to attend because I have learned so much like I said before. If I would not attend college then I would not have the classes I need to graduate and get the job I have always wanted. The reason I went to colloege is because I am having a hard time raising my son with no money. When I would apply for jobs they would not hire me because I have had no work experience.

DEMETRIUS

It has truly helped me in becoming more professional and has kept me very focused on meeting deadlines and managing my time. I truly do love my university.

Paul

From my college experience I have learned that nothing comews from not working. No matter how easy you think a project or paper is you still need to put your full attention into the assignment. If you go into a class thinking it will be an easy class because your roommate slept through most of it and got an A in the class doesn't mean you can do the same. For all you know he could be bending the truth. You have to put your own time into a class because what you put into the class is what you will get out of it. This can be taken to the real world a boss or supervisor will not pay special attention to you and consider you for that pay raise if you do the amount of work you have too. You need to do the amount of work that you can accomplish in the period of time allotted that is what gets you noticed and in return you can go places.

Considering that I am a returning student after years of being home-maker, going back to school has been a wonderful experience for me. I have become acquainted with adults of different ages, background, and may returning moms. I have been skeptical of the work load that was given by my instructors but with their help and outside availability, I was able to maintain my grades at a decent level. I had the priveledge of having a student advisor who not only directed me in the right path of classes to apply for but also became a wonderful support for any complains personal and non-personal. Also my advisor helped to focus on even future plans after community college unto a four year degree. At present time I am going through a difficult time in my life especially being a single mom of seven children and I never thought I could attend college again. I decided with all my might to make a big leap forward to alter my present situation for a positive change. A role model that my children can pattern after; each time I do well in an exam, they are content and proud of their mother.
