Your Child.
College is a Big Step—for Both of You.
Is she ready? Will he make good choices? Who will watch out for her like I did?
Dropping your child off at college is a huge moment for any parent. As a parent, you’ve been thinking about this moment since you dropped your child off at preschool for the first time, and now it’s here: college.
College is a Time of Transition for Students.
It’s Bethany’s Pledge to Support Them During Their Journey to Adulthood.
Bethany’s Pledge to Students
“Bethany Lutheran College pledges to offer each student the comfort of the Gospel, the true knowledge of our world as revealed in Scripture and reflected in nature, and a personal mentoring relationship in higher education as preparation for a life of purpose and meaning.”
Small College. Big Support.
As a small, private college, Bethany is able to provide outstanding support during the college years.
Personal Mentorship
Personal mentorship is our mission, our purpose, our vision, and our pledge. Put simply, we exist to not only teach, but mentor your child.

“Being a Christian at a large state university can be challenging, but the academic and spiritual foundations I built at Bethany prepared me more than I realized. Any success that I’ve had after Bethany can and should be credited to the incredible faculty who took the time and energy to work with me while I was there, encourage my faith, and prepare me for life post graduation.”
Bethany Student
“I have remained in contact with many of my professors who genuinely care about my life after Bethany. I wouldn’t have had the same college experience without such an incredible group of people by my side.”

Business Administration Major
“Most programs have new players who sit the bench and don’t get a chance to show what they’ve got. I want a chance to play and I want to be on a team that can win.”
