Transfer Students
At Luther we place great importance in fulfilling the needs and expectations of our transfer students. We believe in providing the best possible environment for our students and take special steps to ensure that the transfer process is a smooth one.
The decision to transfer requires a great deal of thought and deliberation. Quite frequently it is a more difficult decision than the one that a high school senior faces when selecting a college.
We understand that difficulty and want to provide the most accurate information possible about Luther. We invite you to join us for a campus visit as your investigation begins and hope that you will find the following information helpful.
