Complaints about Liberty

At Liberty University, Veterans’ Complaints Keep Coming (julieroys.com)

Is anyone surprised about complaints? I mean there are several lawsuits so I would figure that there are complaints.

Oh, that's not good. I was looking into going to Liberty University Online. Is it not a good option, thoughts?

If you plan to attend Liberty enroll for one month in Sophia and complete at least one course. This will entitle you to a 15% discount at Liberty. If you are willing to have a background check, Liberty offers a 25% first responder discount to members of the Civil Air Patrol. Membership is $80 per year. Both discounts stack.

I am a proud alumnus of Liberty University School of Business.

My experience as a Liberty University Student was very good.

As its mission is training Champions for Christ, Liberty University will always be a target.

As an active duty Sailor, and as a veteran, I spent many years as a graduate student (Distance Education, of course) I now live very near Lynchburg, Virginia. I love it here.

For so many reasons, I cannot say enough good things about Liberty University.

And... I am looking forward to watching the Liberty University Football team play in the Fiesta Bowl

Because of the large amount of free electives, you can hack a lot of their degrees with lots of alt credit.

There is one degree plan for business though general ed is basically the same for all degrees

There have been some 'slack' going on with Liberty as a whole in the last couple of years, even with the attention they're getting, I still see many people get undergrad, or graduate programs through them. It's a good option, but I would keep my eyes open just in case something better comes along, as I believe for both undergrad and grad, there are some specific classes that are required that not many need/want to take... It's the only thing holding me back from recommending them more often, unless of course, they have a specific credential or degree that's not offered anywhere else...

For anyone with experience in dealing with Liberty,

I would like advice on two things.

1) I have been led to believe that Liberty will accept classes for transfer, but only at the same level of study... Bachelors credits only can be applied to a Liberty bachelor's, masters credits can only go toward a Liberty masters, and only doctoral credits can be applied toward a doctorate at Liberty.

Can anyone confirm?
I was thinking if they would take my MS in Public Safety, I could cut a chunk out of a DPA or PhD in Public Policy...My goal is to earn a doctorate for less than 25,000 total. (paying out of pocket).

Question 2)

Can someone expand in detail about the Sophia program/discount and how it can stack with the first responder discount, as described above.

-Thank you all for your help.

Great question!

Great question!

Yes, good questions, but sometimes it's best to have a set of questions in a particular thread instead of double postings. Here's the other post/thread: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...#pid414568
