Find your PLU Admission Counselor

Watch your possibilities flourish through experiences, challenges, and triumphs. #whyplu

A liberal arts education grounded in critical thinking enables our students to be actively engaged on campus & in our greater community.

I’ve never been a part of a community that is so friendly and welcoming, listens to its community, and accepts all people.

PLU is a place that gives you the tools to find your strengths, pursue your passions and experience the world!

PLU is a place where “we don’t have to do it all alone” because “we were never meant to” and “who we know matters more”.

It's a comfortable place to ask uncomfortable questions.

PLU allowed me to form lasting connections and gain a liberal arts education while participating in an inclusive, welcoming, and powerful community.

We are a place that values and accepts change. We want to be evolving, so we can be the best university – academically and socially – for the students we are serving today.

My #whyplu is for the sense of self and life-long friends I gained in college. And now, seeing future Lutes form their own #whyplu stories!

I love PLU because of its strong emphasis on study abroad and how easy it is for students to experience their studies in different cultural contexts.
