Welcome, Future Students!
Overview
Discover Your Home at Liberty
As a unique individual with gifts, abilities, dreams, and ideals, you have an important contribution to make to the world. College is a time to examine the things that make you “you” and fashion them into a future you can be proud of.
You may want to prepare for a successful career. Or find ways to repair the world. Or become part of a bigger, better story.
Your college career should equip you to do all these things.
At Liberty University, we recognize that your value isn’t just in what you’re going to do, but in who you are. So our programs, departments, and activities are designed to help you develop as a person, not just as a student.

- Liberty students serve at over 1,500 organizations per year.
- Liberty sent faculty, staff, and students on 24 trips during Spring Break 2019. Projects included preparing housing for incoming refugees in Spain, teaching music to children in Nicaragua, and providing trauma counseling for sex trafficking victims in India.
