Financial Check-In (FCI)

Do you want to live near the library or the lacrosse fields? Take the elective you want first semester — or second semester?

Financial Check-In (FCI) is your gateway to everyday life at Liberty. And the earlier you complete it, the more freedom you’ll have to customize your campus experience.

What does Financial Check-In do for you?

Every Liberty student must complete Financial Check-In before beginning classes — but there are advantages to completing it early.

You’ll have…

• Access to our most generous scholarship package
• An invitation to register early for classes
• Lower monthly payments (longer payment plans)
• Your choice of premium housing options

Housing and class registration fill up quickly, and students who have completed FCI get first choice. So if you have your heart set on a particular living area or class schedule, make sure you complete Financial Check-In as soon as it opens.

You’ll love life at Liberty no matter where you live or what you study — FCI simply locks in what that looks like.

• FCI deadline: New Fall 2025 students: Aug. 8, 2025

Make sure you don’t miss the FCI deadlines – you could lose your courses and pay a $150 late fee.
