California Lutheran University Reviews
1 Review Submitted For California Lutheran University
- Reviewed on: May 08, 2012
Flag Review - Rating:
- There is no Greek Life here at CLU and there are not a lot of choices for dining. Thousand Oaks is more of a family friendly area than a college town. You will probably like the smaller class sizes.
