GET TO KNOW US

Josh BenceWheeling, WVExercise Physiology

“I chose WLU because I wanted the best education possible that was still close to home. West Liberty offered the great education and environment that I had hoped for, so choosing the Hilltop was a no brainer. Looking back on
these last few years, I am very proud to call West Liberty my home.”

Kirsten Bogunovich

Alliance, OH
Biology/Pre-Med

“I chose WLU because once I toured campus and met my now teammates, it really felt like home, which I had not experienced on other visits. All of the staff I was introduced to that day made me feel welcomed, accepted, and valued as a person and a student. The environment of the school truly does capture the saying “Hilltop is Home.”

Kendall Souder

Bloomington, IN
Chemistry

“I chose West Liberty University because it allowed me to play the sport I love and study the science that I adore at an affordable price on a beautiful campus . In addition to being on the volleyball team, I am involved with the Chemistry Club, Bio Club, Chi Beta Phi honor society and MOSAIC women’s bible study.”

Maxwell Fiedorczyk

Weirton, WV
Pre-Law

“Perhaps my favorite thing about WLU is the small school atmosphere and it’s ability to present valuable
opportunities to anybody who is interested in them. Without WLU, I would not have been able to take
advantage of nearly as many opportunities as I have thus far.”

Lauryn Fridley

Shenandoah Jct., WV
Broadcasting

“I chose West Liberty because it had everything I was looking for. I wanted a place that felt like home, and I immediately felt that on tour. It’s so easy to get involved and step out of your comfort zone, and you’ll instantly feel like a new person. I am also a resident assistant, intramural referee and on the student production crew.”

Matthew Valentine

Weirton, WV
Marketing

“I chose West Liberty University because it was close to home and it has a friendly feeling to it. Being on campus makes it very easy for me to get to know everyone. In addition to being a student ambassador, I am a resident assistant and involved with Alpha & Omega Men’s Bible Study, and various other student life activities.”

Grace Henley

St. Albans, WV
Exercise Physiology

“I chose WLU for the student atmosphere, athletics, and the academic opportunities here. My professors are always incredibly understanding of my athletic schedule and can always help out when I have questions. My favorite thing about WLU has to be the friends that I have made both in my classes and on my sports teams, without them I would be where I am today.”

Tyler Hill

Cameron, WV
Biology/Pre-Med

“My favorite thing about WLU is it’s small and friendly campus. Graduating from a high school with a class size of 50 students, West Liberty was a comfortable transition into higher education for me.”

Charlie McConnell

Richmond, OH
History and Political Science

“WLU gave me the college atmosphere I was looking for when I first came to visit, that’s why I chose here. My favorite thing is the family feel of campus with my professors, coworkers and friends.”

Adwit Lamichhane

“I chose West Liberty University because it is a small college where you can get to know more people. The campus environment is very friendly and the affordability was a plus. I am in the international club, Net Impact Club – WL Chapter, Hult Prize at West Liberty and the Robotics Club  “

Bethany Morrison

“My favorite thing about West Liberty University is that it is a small campus so it is easy to navigate around. Also, professors are always willing to help outside of class. This university is like a big family plus it is affordable. I am a member of the criminal justice society as well as a student ambassador. “

Breanna Sayre

Wheeling, WV

“My favorite thing about West Liberty University is the close relationships that you can form with your fellow students and teachers because of the smaller size of the student body and welcoming environment. In addition to being a student ambassador, I am in the Bio Club.”

Peri Gray

“I chose West Liberty University because it was affordable and I loved the amazing staff and faculty that I met while on my campus tour. I am also in the biology club, Chi Beta Phi and involved with the research lab.”
