The Lutheran College Washington Semester, also known as LCWS, was founded in 1986 by a core group of Lutheran colleges to provide a quality residential Washington, D.C. semester exclusively for their students. It is a small, personalized program where students live, study, and intern while earning academic credit from their college. Students participate in internships, attend classes, perform community service and partake in field trips or activities unique to D.C. Washington has so much to offer and it’s not just for politics!
