About the School

Who We Are

In 1971, the Rev. Dr. Jerry Falwell dreamed about making the world a better place. He envisioned a generation of professionals in every field who loved God, served others, and were the best at whatever they were called to be. He saw a university on a mountain where this training could happen—and he started to build it. Less than 50 years later, Liberty University is a world-class accredited evangelical liberal arts institution with 17 colleges and schools, over 100,000 students, and 600+ programs of study from the certificate to the doctoral level.
