Lebanon Valley College offers a "well-rounded liberal arts education" in "a close-knit educational environment." Students say, "LVC is a challenging school" that "strives to provide an excellent education and college experience for its students." Lebanon is known for its "amazing science department" and for offering students "the opportunity to get individualized attention from all professors." A junior says, "LVC is all about offering a challenging and rewarding degree program to students up to the challenge," and another student agrees: LVC offers an "opportunity to study with some of the best professors and fellow students in an intimate environment." Professors are considered "interesting and very easily accessible," and students say they "receive personal attention" and "great support from all faculty members." An English major says, "I love having the opportunity to closely work with a professor who knows your name, interests, and abilities," and students tell us that bad professors are "few and far between."

At Lebanon Valley College "about half the student population is athletes, and the other half is music and art majors," and "A typical student is friendly and outgoing." Students describe themselves as "dedicated to their school work but also involved in many other activities," and they say "We have a great diversity in our students' personalities hobbies and backgrounds." A freshman says, "Despite the fact that the school isn't very racially diverse, it's certainly a school where you can grasp a sense of appreciation for diversity." Another student adds: "The atmosphere is generally very accepting despite a moderately conservative student population." Students "hang out or party with friends," but they say "If you're looking to constantly party, this school may not be your best choice, though there is an active social life should you seek it out." A communications major says, "The party circuit exists, but it's not like you walk around the corner and smack into one; you have to know where to go," but most agree that "while there are ‘popular' and ‘unpopular' students, generally no one is an ‘outcast.'"

Lebanon Valley College has a "friendly, beautiful campus community" that offers a "welcoming atmosphere" and a plentitude of "opportunities both in and outside the classroom." Students say, "LVC is a supportive family that is willing to help its students with whatever they may need," and many agree "There is a good support staff available, and the college is rich with resources." A senior says, "It's a small school that has many options. It has great activities and clubs on campus, [and] the facilities are nice." Many students "are involved in the wide variety of clubs available on campus or [as] members of a sports team," but some point out that "you will find a variety of clubs and organizations, but there are obviously not as many as in a big school." Regardless, students feel "Lebanon Valley merges academics with activities…there is ALWAYS something to do," and "The atmosphere is relaxed, and the campus is safe." There are complaints that "the student population is growing, and unfortunately the campus needs to be renovated and expanded," and everyone agrees that "the cafeteria is lacking," because "the food is not the greatest."
