From Liberty University

At Liberty University, we believe in developing Christ-centered men and women with the values, knowledge, and skills to impact their world.

We offer 350+ residential undergraduate and graduate degree programs ranging from aeronautics to zoology, and exciting opportunities to serve, worship, and have fun. Our world-class campus provides opportunities for you to thrive as a student while preparing to make an impact for Christ through your career.

We believe a Liberty education should be affordable and accessible to everyone. That’s why we’ve frozen tuition for six years and counting, waived the test-score admission requirement, and created the one-of-a-kind Middle America Scholarship for students who don’t qualify for the Federal Pell Grant.

Liberty has the resources and opportunities of a large state university — and the heart and soul of an intimate Christ-centered college. You won’t find anywhere like it.
