    Does anyone know anything about Liberty University? I can't figure out if they are accredited or not from their website. Their programs look interesting. has anyone had experience with them?



    Thanks.

    It was a little tricky to find but it appears they are regionally accredited.

    Liberty University is accredited by both their regional accreditor (SACS) and also TRACS. Both are recognized accrediting agencies.

    There was a time some years ago that Liberty's explosive growth caused them to get ahead of themselves, and SACS put them on probation. It was during this time that LU applied for (and was granted) TRACS accreditation, probably as a "safety valve" in case they lost their RA status. Liberty has put that all behind them, and has been off RA probation for many years.

    Liberty offers several interesting & unique DL programs, and if you like or don't mind their conservative, religious angle to just about everything (it's Jerry Falwell's school after all), they're worth serious consideration.
