    Smaller classes and personalized attention. I am a college athlete so sometimes I miss class but our professors seem to understand.

    At first glance, any college can appear daunting as far as finances are concerned and LEC is no different. Many people may see that it is a private institution and feel like it will be expensive. This is my advice: Just ask our financial aid department. I was amazed at what they could do for me. After all of the aid they were willing to give, it turned out that this private school was just as cheap as a public one. In fact, in my case, it was even cheaper! This college is well worth what any prospective student might put into it. The professors are capable, willing, and friendly. The classes are small, the courses are challenging, and all the amenities of campus life make this school too good of a deal to pass up.
