Educating Leaders for Global Society
California Lutheran University is a private, residential university based in the greater Los Angeles area that welcomes students from around the world to its diverse campus.
With leading programs in the liberal arts, sciences, and professional studies, California Lutheran is ranked as one of the top 20 western regional colleges by U.S. News & World Report, and is a place where students of every nationality and background are given the skills and training for rewarding careers and lives.
"The relatively small size of the school makes everything so much more intimate. People are really friendly once you get through the first step of simple acquaintance. It's incredible how much people say hi to you in a day."
