Traci Pooler: Adair and Russell Counties

I have many things that I love about LWC, but if I have to pick a favorite, I love going to football games, watching the band perform, seeing the school spirit all through the bleachers and watching our players get fired up for the game!

My word of advice to seniors in high school: Make sure you stay open-minded about your decision on where to attend college and do some investigating on your own. Too many times I see young people who do not visit places and instead make decisions based on friends. Consquently, they select a school that isn't necessarily the right fit for them.

 

 

Charity Ferguson: Central Kentucky

I love LWC because I am surrounded by the absolute best people in the universe.  Our amazing faculty and staff have a passion for service to others like none I've witnessed before. I am honored to be a member of such an incredible group.

I wish I had known the importance of a campus visit during my senior year.  It's really the most important part of the decision process!

 

Gina Collins: Southcentral Kentucky

I love how the campus glows with splendid colors during the fall season, is so peaceful during the winter and vibrant in the spring. Each season brings new beauty and new energy to the campus.

I would suggest for you to sit in on classes during your college visits. It allows you to get a feel for classroom dynamics, size of the classes and how the professors interact with students.

 

Sara Foos: Southern Kentucky

Having the opportunity to do amazing things is why I love LWC. I have had the chance to sing on the stage of Carnegie Hall twice during my time here.

I encourage all high school students to take their classes, exams and homework seriously. When scholarship time rolls around, you'll be glad you did!

 

 

Kendra Leveridge: Louisville and Greater Louisville

My favorite aspect of LWC is its small classes. You really get the chance to know your classmates and professors, which makes your college experience more valuable and enriching.

My advice to high school juniors and seniors is to take the ACT early and as often as possible. Even though you have the opportunity at the end of your junior year, I encourage students to take it earlier in the year -- and as often as possible -- to maximize scholarship opportunities.

 

Charles Mooney: Southeastern Kentucky

I love LWC because of its family oriented atmosphere. You are not another number or a "little fish in a big pond." The faculty and staff strive daily to take care of each and every student on campus.

My advice to high school juniors and seniors is to prepare for the ACT. Our Academic Achievement Scholarship is awarded to those students who have achieved a 3.0 cumulative GPA and an 18 composite ACT. The best opportunity to earn more scholarship money is to score well on the ACT.

Tyler McCubbins: Northeastern Kentucky

One of my favorite things about LWC is the opportunity for students to see and experience the world through participation in service-learning trips, study abroad programs and interaction with a diverse student body. Some of my most memorable moments include serving with the Bonners in San Francisco and Chicago, and traveling to Seattle and Alaska with the Lindsey Wilson Singers.

I encourage high school seniors to become involved on campus -- it's one of the most important aspects of the college experience. Participation allows students to develop friendships, create networking opportunities and build a resume.

Josh Gibson: Western Kentucky

I love how much the campus has changed, yet remains the same. With all of the new facilities and great additions to the A.P. White Campus, LWC still holds on to the small-town atmosphere it has always had.

I suggest you to ask lots of questions about the FAFSA and financial aid. Potential free money is a terrible thing to miss out on, so get your FAFSA done as soon as possible after Jan. 1.

 

Emily Carnall: Heartland Region of Kentucky

My favorite aspect of Lindsey Wilson College is the service-learning atmosphere. LWC gave me the opportunity to serve the campus inside and outside of the classroom, as well as the local community.

My advice to high school seniors is to push yourself to reach your full potential through extracurricular activities and challenging classes so that you are fully prepared for your freshman year of college.
