Attending Valley Forge was one of the worst decisions of my life. The faculty quality is horrible (consider the fact that NON of the professors are published in any academic journals or have books published). The faculty is really nice and friendly, but if you want a proper education go somewhere else.

I attended for two years and then transferred out. Best decision of my life. I now have a B.A. from a real University. Do not go to this college if you value academic rigor at all. The majority of the professors assign joke homework that doesn't interact with current scholarship. If you ever expect to go to graduate school you will be grossly unprepared.

The readings we did for most classes were fun, but in retrospect had nothing to do with modern scholarship. Only when I left the school did I realize how unprepared I was for attending a real college. Don't expect to have any challenging classes. The classes are all easy and require little effort to pass. Paper writing is a joke, if you write a paper that is semi-coherent you will probably get an A in any class. I never had one professor help me become a better academic writer.

Do not expect to have a diversity of classes available to you. Don't even expect you teacher to know what they are teaching also. I took a Business math class while I was there and (I swear I'm not lying) the teacher would come to class and tell us

I really don't understand this and I'm not sure why they gave me this class

They will often have teachers teach classes that they aren't proficient in.

Valley Forge overworks their professors and doesn't give them any time to publish (News Flash, teaching 5 classes a semester is NOT the norm for any professor).

The majority of the student body is about as bland as could be. They are unoriginal and do not think outside of the box. If you consider yourself anything but mindless drone, do not go to this school.

This is one of the most unhealthy colleges in existence. I can't say this enough. DO NOT GO TO VFCC. If you want a Christian education go to Liberty or Evangel. You can find a better education at a community college. Please stay away from this school, it's too expensive to go and brings way to big a headache.
