Wisconsin Lutheran College is a great environment for people looking for a small community of genuinely caring individuals. You are open to many opportunities that are sometimes missed while attending larger state schools. Also, for such a small school, they do they very best they can to help students afford their education.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Make sure you are looking into a TON of scholarships. This school is expensive, as is any private college or university. However, the quality of the school is worth it if it is affordable for you.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
The professors are dedicated to assuring that you get that most out of your money towards your education. They push you to challenge yourself and actually learn the material that you are studying, but at the same time are graciously helpful when you are struggling. The small class sizes helps a great deal towards this.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
The dorms are outstanding. To start, they are some of the largest dorm rooms I have ever seen. The safety precautions they take make you feel safe and comfortable at all times. Living in the dorms here was so much fun
Describe the food and dining at your college.
Cafeteria food is cafeteria food. The food here isn't any worse than your typical high school style dining, but it is not much better either. They do attempt do provide a broad span of choices, and normally do a pretty good job.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
There are a ton of sports events around the school constantly, including intramural sports. There is also an outdoor basketball court as well as a sand volleyball court! With easy access to Milwaukee's public bus transportation system, you can also easily take a short bus ride to down town Milwaukee, Brookfield Square, and even Wauwatosa Village. There is plenty to do in the suburban area to keep you busy the entire school year.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
For the expensive private college price, the school is absolutely amazing and completely worth it.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus
Every week a group of students play ultimate frisbee on The Quad, a large span of grass in the middle of our campus. There is also a section of the administration building, called the nun run, that is supposed to be haunted. I have never seen anything here, but it is definitely eerie enough for me to refrain walking through the fall alone at night.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Students looking for small class sizes and a home feeling campus. However, if you are a party animal, you should steer away; it is a dry campus. Sorry!
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
There is an enormous amount of clubs and organizations for everyone to get involved in! The options are quite honestly endless.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
Our school has no greek life.
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
While we are in the greater Milwaukee area, which is not known for being the safest city in America, we are on the outskirts in the town Wauwatosa. This area is much nicer and family oriented. While on campus, I never felt as though I were in danger. However, it is not recommended to stray far off campus alone during the night hours.
