A possible solution

li.<active-class> > a {
   border-bottom:1px solid white;
}

Replace '<active-class>' with the class name you are using. f.i. class name = active than it would be li.active > a

See JSFiddle for an example with a red underline (red to see the result)

How to make a white line under the active link in the menu bar? I triied with Active:IsActive, but how to make the white line under the active link.

Thank you

I have it now like this:

 <ul class="nav navbar-nav">

                        <li class=" nav active">@Html.ActionLink("WHO", "Index", "Account")</li>
                        <li class=" nav active">@Html.ActionLink("WHAT", "Index", "Student")</li>
                        <li class=" nav active">@Html.ActionLink("AGENDA", "Index", "Course")</li>
                        <li class=" nav active">@Html.ActionLink("PHILOSPY", "Index", "Instructor")</li>
                        <li class="nav active">@Html.ActionLink("BUCKET-LIST", "Index", "Department")</li>
                        <li class="nav active">@Html.ActionLink("LolaRiders", "Index", "LolaBiker")</li>
                        <li class="nav active">@Html.ActionLink("bycicle", "Index", "Bycicle")</li>

                        <li class="nav"> @Html.Partial("_LoginPartial")</li>

                    </ul>

and this for site:

.active {
            font-style:oblique ;
             border-bottom:1px solid white;

        }

But now all the items have a white stripe, and not onely the active link.

If I use this:

li.active > a {
    border-bottom:1px solid red;
}

then also all the items have red line

and if I just do this:

  <ul class="nav navbar-nav">

                        <li @if (@ViewContext.RouteData.GetRequiredString("controller") == "Account") { @Html.AttributeEncode("class=active")   ; }>
                            @Html.ActionLink("WHO", "Index", "Account")
                        </li>

                        <li @if (@ViewContext.RouteData.GetRequiredString("controller") == "Student") { @Html.AttributeEncode("class=active")    ; }>
                            @Html.ActionLink("What", "Index", "Student")
                        </li>


                        <li class="nav"> @Html.Partial("_LoginPartial")</li>

                    </ul>

still both items are highlighted
