    Am learning a lot

    First of all, the classes are mostly all religious, so if you're not Christian, don't apply here. You won't like it. Second, there's very few math and sciences courses, so for all of us uber-challenged, that's a huge plus!
    The professors are always open to helping new students. Many of them attended LCU or another similar college in the past and understand the difficulty of adjusting to the environment. They also understand a student's need to have fun and often join in!
    Am enjoying being here

    The Warehouse is open most of the time for students to come in, kick back, relax, play games, watch movies, do homework, and just generally hang out! It also serves premium Starbucks coffee at GREAT prices! All students who sign up for the meal plan get fifty dollars worth of coffee and treats from the Warehouse. Can't really beat that, can you? Plus, in the winter, there's a cute fireplace with fire in it. Great spot to kick up with a good book and a cup of hot cocoa with whipped cream.
    Bang for the buck

    Eh... Lincoln's a small town, but you can't beat the great environment on campus!
    Tips for prospective students

    When dining in the caf, it's very appropriate to ask Matt (cashier) what he recommends for your meal.
    Buy a little packet from Mr. Books to keep your ID in. I've lost mine twice this semester. There goes twenty bucks I could've tithed.
    Be prepared to make friends.

    Great for these types of students

    Crazy God-loving rich people with a desire to know the God's will and have a great time.

    lincoln christian university is an exceptional institution for learning how to think critically and engage with the world. lcu teaches its students not to blindly believe what they believe, but to question it and really believe it. in addition, their programs are very sound with incredibly intelligent and competent professors.
    Tips for prospective students

    visit campus, and stay overnight! you will have tons of fun.
    Academic Rigor

    lcu is difficult, and will challenge your intellect and commitment to learning.
    Dorm Life

    very fun. i have spent countless hours hanging out with guys on my floor.
    Food and Dining

    the food is very good, and the manager of the food company (sodexho) is always trying to please the students.
    What to do for fun

    hang out with students. the town of lincoln is not conducive to awesome friday nights on the town. but the community here is phenomenal and anyone who likes hanging with people will enjoy it here.
    Bang for the buck

    incredible. one of the least expensive private universities in illinois, and they ensure you get the scholarships you can. the education you receive is worth far more than what you pay.
    Great for these types of students

    outgoing, smart, creative
    Clubs and Activities

    small amount of clubs and official activities, but the president is working to get more established.

    lincoln christian university has been an excellent experience both in education and spirituality. their expectations for us are kept high and keep me motivated to succeed in my college career. lincoln christian university is doing an awe inspiring job at grooming future leaders.
    Tips for prospective students

    to prospective students i would highly recommend scheduling a campus visit day where possible students are allowed to tour the campus and stay one night in the dorms. this experience could be a deciding factor for any future student.
    Academic Rigor

    while some courses might not be particularly challenging there are just as many courses that meet the students and require them to put in a lot of time and effort. the majority of the time it is not too much to bare but other times it can seem overwhelming.
    Dorm Life

    dorm life at lincoln christian university is something that can only be compared to family. everyone knows each other on each floor and there is a sense of community.
    Food and Dining

    the majority of our food is very good with only occasional meals that seem maybe sub par.
    What to do for fun

    while lincoln is a small town and the campus even smaller there are still things to do like go to games, relax in the warehouse with a coffee, student organized games of capture the flag. in town we have the owl's roost, the small movie theater, and a number of restaurants.
