The university says in a news release that it received a record 33,914 applications for the fall semester.

Liberty opened a new high-rise residence hall, Residential Commons I, in 2014. A second residence hall, Residential Commons II, will open in the fall.

The university plans to construct more residence halls as part of $500 million campus rebuilding.
