Campus Safety	Haven't had any issues. Campus alerts are fast and quick and they are tested regularly.
Greek Life	There is a Chiropractic fraternity and possibly a sorority. There is not a big Greek Life presence on campus.
Clubs and Activities	There are so many clubs and it is really easy to start one if they don't have what you're looking for. I was evolved with bringing a new club to campus and the process was no where near as stressful as I anticipated.
Great for these types of students	Athletes, health enthusiasts, and anyone wanting to live a more green lifestyle.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus	SPEAK tradition. When you pass anyone on campus, speak. Say hello to everyone even if you don't know them.
Bang for the buck	The price seems fair, maybe a little high. Sometimes the administration seems to waste money on frivolous things.
What to do for fun	Go watch a rugby game. Our men's team is one of the best in the nation. There is also a women's team that has started recently and is doing stellar as well.
Food and Dining	The cafe is overcrowded, overpriced, and has a limited selection. Most students opt to bring their own lunch and eat in the cafe.
Dorm Life	Limited space creates a waiting list for students wanting to live on campus. The housing is apartment style meaning you get your own room, but there is not a great deal of connection with other residents.
Academic Rigor	The undergraduate program is no where near as tough as other schools. I have to bring down the ranking because of that. However, the graduate and doctorate programs will stress and test your abilities to the max.
Tips for prospective students	Get involved and be ready for a friendly atmosphere. The more you engage with other students the better your experience.
In three sentences	Life is a great community of students who are health conscious and subscribe to the Vitalistic model of health care. Each student can expect an open arms welcoming by everyone here. There is no other school quite like Life.

What to do for fun	You are only a few miles away from Atlanta.
Food and Dining	The cafe is small, but so is the school. If you like eating healthy they have plenty of options as most of the food comes from local farmers.
Dorm Life	I don't personally live in the dorms, but several of my friends do. They have studio dorms and roommate dorms. Very convenient and completely furnished.
Academic Rigor	The chiropractic program is extremely challenging, but manageable if you stay on top of it.
Tips for prospective students	Stay on top of studying. Waiting until the last minute to study will definitely not serve you well. Join clubs and get your name out there. Networking is key to being a successful chiropractor.
In three sentences	As far as a chiropractic school, you will not find a better one. It is extremely hard academically, but considering you will be a doctor, it needs to be challenging. The faculty and staff are extremely friendly, and the school offers many opportunities to meet chiropractors.

In three sentences	I have been a student a Life University for three quarters so far, and the experience has been unbelievable! The vitalistic approach to life here on campus is so refreshing and inspiring as I continue to head towards my goal, Chiropractic! The campus is amazing, and the people I've been privillaged to get to know are truly one of a kind!

Campus Safety	The campus is very safe. It is a small campus but has its own police station. Police are constantly patrolling to make sure everyone is safe and secure.
Clubs and Activities	There are tons of clubs on-campus.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus	The campus is an all green campus. All the buildings are being converted into environmentally friendly buildings.
Bang for the buck	The tuition is crazy expensive but it is well worth the amount of knowledge you gain.
What to do for fun	Life University is about 15-20 minutes from downtown Atlanta! Your options are endless!
Food and Dining	The cafe on campus is actually pretty good. All the food is fresh, organic, and environmentally friendly. They have Starbucks coffee available throughout the day as well as many healthy snacks.
Dorm Life	There aren't dorms but on-campus apartments. They are a little expensive but really convenient. If you are moving from out-of-state, I would strongly recommend living on-campus for a year.
Academic Rigor	The chiropractic program certainly has some challenges. It is a time consuming process and requires hours of studying each day after class.
Tips for prospective students	School isn't about just learning, it is about creating opportunities for yourself. Take every chance you get to learn and better yourself.
In three sentences	Great school with a great philosophy. Teachers and staff strive to give the students everything they need and create a great learning environment. It is a place where you can not only change your life but also the world.

Academic Rigor	Networking with professors and students is a plus for academic excellence.
Tips for prospective students	If you are looking for a school to give you what you need to enter or progress in the medical field, ( i,e.

Every university or college experience is what you make of it, a positive outlook and knowledge of what is included in your benefits as a student pays off greatly! Good Luck & chin, chin!
In three sentences	Classes are small. Instructors work with struggling students. School is very much family oriented with a focus on holistic health.

Tips for prospective students	Know everything about the credits you need before entering into any program. Do not assume that you will have guidance and be able to speak up for yourself. If chiropractic is your passion go for it but you might want to complete your undergrad program elsewhere.
In three sentences	I have had some good experiences, some bad. The teachers are all caring and genuine people but a few, I felt, lacked knowledge of the subjects. The advising is a big area of concern. I and many of the classmates I talked to had difficulty with getting the help we needed.
