Hi,
As I take Sophia courses,
with plans for a BLS from UMPI,
I started looking into Liberty University.
Quick question.
If you transfer 90 credits to Liberty,
How would Liberty students rate the difficulty of their courses?
I understand they have no proctors.
THANK YOU!!!

From what I've seen from the student reports online, the classes are not difficult. Each class requires about one hour a day, so if you take two classes per 8-week term, that's around 14 hours per week.
We have a Wiki degree plan for LU, which you can use as a starting point to maximize the transfer of alt credits to any major.

Yes, Liberty is an option, but I wouldn't jump on that ship at all... Liberty may have class requirements related to religion for undergraduate students, if you're not interested in those type of classes, it's a waste of your time. Cost wise, even with the discount, they're not much more expensive than the others we recommend, having said that, they still cost more... Last but not least, Liberty is known as an online institution with a campus... I'd rather again stick with public/state institutions first, then non-profit/private online institutions next, last or least on your list should be the for-profits.

Unless you want to quote the Bible in every assignment in every course, I'd stick with UMPI. Liberty University is even controversial or viewed as low quality in religious circles. I'm not saying that Liberty is low quality; that's just the general perception.

Thanx Everyone!
I am sticking with UMPI !
I heard about NO proctoring,
and I thought maybe it was a real breeze.
But it doesn't sound like that at all!
