For over 200 international students from more than 75 countries each year, Luther College provides a world of opportunities.
Students’ paths to Luther—from countries such as Ghana, Nepal, India, China, Japan, Norway, Bolivia, Zambia, Vietnam, and Brazil, to name a few—are as varied as the paths they embark upon at graduation. After four years of study, students leave Luther better prepared to make a difference in their graduate or professional school programs, succeed in the workforce, and serve in the world.
