InCLUsive Overnight

March 30 - April 1, 2023

The InCLUsive Overnight Program was established to increase diversity within the student body. We hope to foster a campus climate that encourages inclusive, cross-cultural interaction, respect for and appreciation of diversity and global awareness.

The InCLUsive Overnight Program gives admitted high school students the opportunity to visit Cal Lutherans campus. Participants will learn what life is like as a Cal Lutheran student by staying the night on-campus, making connections with members of our faculty, staff, and student leaders, meeting other students considering Cal Lutheran, and interacting with current students who make Cal Lutheran their home.

This is an invitation only program. If you would like to learn more about this program, please contact the Office of Undergraduate Admission at admissions@callutheran.edu or call 877-258-3678.

Scholarship Awards

The participants who come to campus will have the opportunity to compete for the InCLUsive Scholarships, which range from $1,000 to $2,500 and are renewable for up to four years. Students must attend the entire program in order to be eligible for the scholarships.

Participant Invitations

Participants for the InCLUsive Overnight Program and Scholarship are high school students admitted to Cal Lutheran for the 2023-2024 academic year. Invitees generally identify as an underrepresented student, first generation college students, or demonstrate commitment to diversity in their community and/or high school.

When I came to InCLUsive I immediately knew I was HOME. The weekend was a blast and meeting people from so many backgrounds made me realize that Cal Lu was the most diverse and inCLUsive of all the schools I was considering. Do whatever you can to come to this amazing weekend!
