Don't be so narrowed minded. Looks are not everything. Campuses that look the best cost the most.

Lincoln will do for you what you want it to. When I say this I really mean it. If you want a education they can give you that. If you want to party and play everyday you can find that. And if you want an education and to party at the same time then you can get that here to.

A great idea is to take advantage of the transition week. Take the time to make good friends and get acquainted with your student leaders.

If you're not from this area, I recommend you come prepared for the changing weather. Also bring cleaning materials, snacks for your dorm for late nights, keep up with your studies and any financial issues that may arise.

I would advise all students to understand that the transition from high school to college is a difficult one and you must be ready to put your all into your school work, start off by understanding the campus and do not overload yourself with extracurricular activities until you know you can handle both school work and other responsibilities. It will get hard but when you graduate and receive the degree it will be all worth it.

Tips for prospective students from myself would be to be the best you can be while attending college. The transition from high school to college is very different, especially if you are going away and/or staying on campus. While experiencing being away, you learn a lot about yourself and the world around you. My best advice would be to make sure to balance having fun and prioritizing what your their for, your education. You are absolutely suppose to enjoy your years away from home as well as experiencing being on your own, however, attending college is not only expensive but one of the greatest investments of your life if that is what you make it.

Take advantage of everything that Lincoln offers.

The area is the main concern for Lincoln University because it is rural around the campus. It allows students to put more focus into school rather than other areas of the college life.
