Liberty University
Message From the Chancellor
Liberty University is the largest and fastest growing Christian Evangelical university in the world. Founded in 1971 by my father, the late Dr. Jerry Falwell Sr., Liberty started with his vision to train young Champions for Christ. We’re now the largest private university in Virginia, offering more than 60 accredited programs of study. Our campus boasts top-notch facilities and state-of-the-art technology, but our original mission and purpose remains strong as we continue to grow. Liberty hosts some of the world’s best-known Christian evangelists, speakers and performers every semester, and our vibrant spiritual life based on a solid doctrinal statement truly sets us apart from other schools. While academics and faith are our top priorities, Liberty is also pleased to offer NCAA Division I athletics and many recreational opportunities. Everything we do is designed to develop Christ-centered men and women with the values, knowledge and skills essential to impact tomorrow’s world.
A Closer Look
Liberty University’s greatest asset is its students — and their school spirit, enthusiasm, strong character and motivation. Behind these successful students are parents who are valued for their supportive role. Whether you’re a prospective student or parent, you might be curious about LU — and you’re looking in the right spot.
