New students eligible for VA benefits or tuition assistance, please email the Office of the Registrar to initiate the process. The Office of the Registrar will submit to the Veterans Administration certification of a veteran’s enrollment for military benefits purposes. This is typically done at the beginning of each term after the add/drop period closes and can be requested by the student at any other time. Please email the Office of the Registrar (registrar@luthersem.edu) with questions about the VA reporting process.

Travel Study Course in Guatemala and Mexico—January 2025
Join Professor Guillermo Hansen for a study course in Guatemala and Mexico from January 9–22, 2025. Through an immersive field experience, this course explores the history and mission of our companion Lutheran churches and ecumenical partners in these countries, focusing particularly on their ministry with indigenous peoples, migration, and human rights. Participants will share in the life of the communities visited and take part in local worship services and spiritual practices. The course also seeks to familiarize students with the historical, social, and cultural features of this region through visits to archeological sites (Tikal, Templo Mayor in Mexico City), conversations with local leaders and scholars, experiencing cultural-historical venues (Antigua, Anthropological Museum in Mexico City, Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe).
