    RESIDENCY REQUIREMENT

    Maintaining a sense of campus community is important to us, so if you do not live with your family, you are required to live in college residence halls. Students are offered a variety of housing styles including on-campus, furnished apartments. If you live with your family, you may commute from home. If you have been out of high school for more than three years, you may live off campus. Appeals to these policies can be made through the Vice President of Student Life.

    TRANSFER CREDITS

    After you have applied for admission and have arranged for your college transcripts to be sent to WLC, our registrar will evaluate your transcripts to determine which credits will transfer, thereby determining your class status. A student must have finished a class with a "C" or better for it to be considered for transfer credit.

    APPLICATION REQUIREMENTS

    Prior to admissions, Wisconsin Lutheran College requests that you turn in your free online application, college transcript, final high school transcript, and your ACT score (if you are transferring in less than 30 credits). You must also be allowed back at your previous school in good standing.
