Martin Luther University College Academic Advising
Academic advising is available at Martin Luther University College. You should make an appointment with your academic advisor once each year for course planning purposes, and before submitting any special requests to the Luther academic administrative committee (such as a request for a directed study course).
When meeting your advisor, bring a list of all completed courses from LORIS and your program requirements. Program requirements can be used from any year’s academic calendar during which you were enrolled in your program of study.
