All incoming students must go through an application process that includes completing an application, submitting appropriate recommendations, and providing proof of past academic performance. The final step of the application process is the completion of a family interview in which the parents and student meet with the Principal. See below for a checklist of steps.

We issue the F-1 Student I-20 to qualified International students who meet our admission requirements.

Additional Policies

Metro-East Lutheran High School tries to serve students of varying academic abilities.  However, the school does not have the resources needed to serve students who have significant academic needs.

Metro-East Lutheran High School desires to surround its students with positive influences.  Applicants who desire to transfer to Lutheran High because of an extended suspension or expulsion from their present or previous school will likely be denied enrollment.  However, each application is considered on an individual basis.

Metro-East Lutheran High School encourages its students and their families to be active in a Christian congregation, but church membership or attendance is not required for enrollment.

Metro-East Lutheran High School reserves the right to accept or decline any student application.
