Great, private university in Thousand Oaks, California. Our daughter spent three years there in the sun lit foothills of northern Los Angeles. They are intimate and have many outreach programs for their students. They also have a great psychology program.

High School and not so large that you feel like you're just another number. It's a cozy campus where everyone feels more like a community than an institution. The atmosphere is more about the student getting as much education and experience from the campus than just passing or getting a grade. It's not competitive, it's more cooperative where others help each other to succeed. I really did love going to school here and the resources and experience I gained are true treasures. The professors here are wonderful and the art community in this campus is wonderful.

Although this is a private university, my toddler boys love walking this campus and visiting the water stream to listen to frogs and just to visit. It’s a beautiful campus and quiet during weekends. They also took swim lesson here. Lovely relaxing atmosphere

CLU has a beautiful campus, with native landscaping that is labeled to identify the species. we enjoy taking long walks around and through the campus.

There's a walking bridge the crosses over Olsen Road so students and faculty do not have to travel longer distances than necessary, and it also connects the northern portion of the campus to the southern. They have several new buildings, including a state-of-the-art cafeteria, gymnasium with weight room, and a museum.

In the summer months, prior to the pandemic, the Kinsmen Company hosts Shakespearean plays in the campus park, complete with a full stage and professional actors. Patrons can take a picnic dinner and purchase wine and beer before the play or during intermissions. Seats are on the grass, on blankets or on low-backed lawn chairs

The Los Angeles Rams also train on the northern part of the CLU campus in a cordoned-off section that houses their training facility.

I encourage a trip to visit the CLU campus if you're in the area.

Graduated from the Professionals program in 2017. Literally opened up doors i didn't know where closed to me without the degree. My son and I went to scooter around during the pandemic so he could enjoy the outside. Such a beautiful campus.

Attended the 45th Annual Scandinavian Festival at Cal Lutheran today. It was a lovely celebration with food, music, games and crafts for the kids, as well as artisans and genealogy resources to help provide a closer look into the various Scandinavian cultures.

Cal Lutheran is not a Christian school. They disgrace the great reformer Martin Luther with their denominational name. They welcome every view except for the Traditional Biblical one. Not only are they fully woke and supportive of LGBTQ, they actually support religious pluralism (I.e., there are multiple ways to God).

Absolutely hated my time at CLU. It’s cliquey, racist, homophobic, and did nothing to minimize the hate people would demonstrate especially when Trump was elected. I’ll never forget someone in the Mount Clef lobby had a “build the wall” pin and no one did anything about it.

If you want to go to school with a bunch of entitled, spoiled, dramatic private school kids then go to CLU.

All this school does is obtain as much as possible but does absolutely nothing to protect BIPOC students. They’ll take a million dollar grant for Hispanic students and accepts more of them but does absolutely nothing to protect them. Despicable and cruel behavior.
