LVC is a beautiful campus with nice professors and lots of resources.

Good school. It's a fairly rural area, you should know that before you come, so don't be disappointed! You need a car to drive to attractions.

If you're looking for a small campus with great professors and interesting classes, LVC is an excellent choice. The school is beautiful and is all around very cozy. I entered as an Education major and was given an opportunity to already co-teach with another student in an elementary school. I recommend this school. It's a home away from home.

LVC is a money maker not a college. You either have to overload and pay $500 dollar per credit or you have to stay for more than 4 years(where all your financial aid will be gone). The BIO and CHEM classes are unimaginably hard for entry level, they are weed out classes that make many people drop out all together.

Well, if you enjoy nothing to do then you're at the right place.

There is very little diversity on campus. Many minority students that I know left because they hated their experience. Because of this, a good portion of the campus has no idea how to interact with someone different than themselves. The experience will suck if you show any kind of individuality.
