Financial Aid and Student Accounts are the biggestQuite BrightAccounting
Financial Aid and Student Accounts are the biggest nightmare I have ever seen (and I deal with the IRS daily!) The grants are wrong, the amounts are wrong, and even if they are right they change them so they are wrong! Expect to be suddenly paying out hundreds of dollars at randome without warning, have your grants or scholarships returned to the payees for unknown reasons, there is ABSOLUTELY no accountability for the staff whatsoever!

If you are lucky enough to get past Financial aid or Student Accounts into an actual class, the professors do not respond to emails, discussion board posts asking for help or guidance are a waste of time, and assignments MAY be graded and posted a week or so after class ends. I once had the professor go on vacation and be out of contact for the duration of the class... and I speak from not one or two semesters but 6 years of effort towards this degree. While their tuition is agreeably lower than other colleges, I cannot stress enough that you get what you pay for and this college is all about how much money they can get out of you no matter how dishonest or unprofessional they are about how they do it. You will be wasting your time and probably leave without finishing a degree. Be smart and go to a community college instead. Their better and cheaper.

Question
This school is definatley on the way down.BrightAccounting
This school is definatley on the way down. The Board of Directors is so close minded and does not care about students. All they care about is getting bigger and better so they can make more money. The business program is on its way to being online only which will greatly devalue the degree you receive. High Quality classroom teachers are being let go and not allowed to teach in the class room because they are being forced to teach online to make the school money. Would highly discourage you from going to Liberty..Try another Christian school alternative instead.

Question
If you want a degree and not haveQuite BrightAccounting
If you want a degree and not have to learn about your course work then Liberty is for you. Don't expect alot from the teachers either. The online teachers are only there to collect a second paycheck it seems. I have attended online classes elsewhere with great sucess and this was such a dissapointment trying Liberty.
