Bethany Lutheran College is Home School Friendly

Home school students excel at Bethany because our educational environment matches their academic, social, and spiritual needs.

• Bethany features a 12:1 student-to-teacher ratio.
   
• Professors committed to the Christian education of our students.
   
• A Christian perspective permeates everything we do at Bethany - the chapel, classroom, residence halls, and extra-curricular areas.
   
• A classical liberal arts curriculum with an expanding list of majors. Visit our Academics page for more information on programs.
   
• State-of-the-art facilities, all of which have been built or renovated in the past 15 years. Visit our Virtual Tour for a look.
   

Admissions
Bethany uses the same process for admissions and scholarship procedures with home school students as it does for students attending public or private high school.

• A completed application (apply online) - indicate "home school" when asked for high school attended.
   
• Standardized test score: ACT or SAT I; Bethany does not require the essay portion of the ACT, but does recommend it. Bethany's ACT code is 2086; the SAT code is 6035.
   
• One of the following:
  • a transcript, listing the course name and grade received
  • a portfolio, including a list of classes and reading materials
  • a letter of academic appraisal, providing evidence of academic ability
