Luther College Top Questions

Before arriving at Luther College, I wish I had known the vigor with which the students apply themselves to their education. It was surprising to see so much drive and intensity in classes; it's really quite surprising. Yet, this intimidating intensity also helps motivate other students to keep up with their classmates and strive to do their best.

To really make the most out of the first couple of weeks and be willing to go out of your comfort zone and get to know people. You certainly continue to meet people as the year goes on and in the following years but don't wait too long to start making friends or it gets to be more difficult because you get busy with classes and work and such and people get settled in. That being said, getting involved with extra-curriculars is a great way to stay busy and meet those people that will make great college friends.

I wish I had known that college was more than just good grades and hard classes, and that it wasn't as impossible as it seemed. I wish I had known that I didn't need to be so scared and stressed out because there are so many people to help you there and all you need to do is take it one day at a time.

The location of my college is very limiting. You have to travel very far in order to find anything to do off-campus.

I wish I had known more about the majors offered and what entails to each one. I also wish I had known about the work study and other various job opprotunities in the communty and on campus. Being a private college, having a job or another source of income during the school year is almost neccessary to be able to pay for all four years.

I wish that I had taken more classes in my field (music) in high school. I feel a little behind all the time, but in reality I'm just right.

Nothing. Luther gave me every bit of information that I needed!

I wish I had known that the price of tuition would raise 6{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} this year. Inflation was a given, but I didn't know that it would raise that much!
