RAIAH ROBINSON

My favorite part about LR are campus resources. Almost anything you need help with academically there is a resource on campus that can help. Résumé writing, math tutoring, interpreters, and the list goes on and on.

JAKE PIERCE

I chose LR because it was the best overall fit. The recommendations and reputation of the nursing program were unmatched.

SELINA CORTEZ

I chose LR for the tight knit community and the learning experience. I transferred from a large institution, where talking to your professor and office hours were rare. Now, I talk to my professors every day of class and get the help I need.

"There are so many things that make LR great. The professors. The size of the campus. The close-knit community feeling...If you want to feel like you’re at home, while not being at home, you definitely want to choose LR."
