I would recommend Luther because teachers make meaningful connections with students. A lot of my teachers have spent countless hours helping me outside of their own schedules. I’m so grateful for all the hard work they put in to help me succeed.

The small size of the college has allowed me to create meaningful connections with a lot of members of our campus community, and it truly feels like home. The friends I’ve made, the professors I’ve had, and Luther staff I’ve encountered have all contributed to making Luther a special place for me.

Through my internships, I learned how flexible my major is. I can go into a medical field, learn the basics, and apply everything that I know about computer science there. The next day, I can go into a sales team and do the same. I can go in many directions.
