In 1919, the college relocated to the Fremont Normal College campus in Fremont, Nebraska, and the institutions were joined. Following the 1962 merger of the American Evangelical Lutheran Church, the Augustana Lutheran Church, the Finnish Evangelican Lutheran Church and the United Lutheran Church in America, Midland merged with Luther Junior College, founded in Wahoo, Nebraska, in 1883. The college then took the name Midland Lutheran College. Today, Midland is affiliated with the Nebraska and Rocky Mountain Synods of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. Midland is conveniently located in Fremont, Nebraska, only 30 minutes from Omaha, the state's largest city, and an hour from Lincoln, the state's capital.
Opportunities abound for cultural, educational and recreational activities.
Fremont also offers numerous recreational activities, including the Fremont State Lakes where students may hike, swim, boat, and ski. Career counseling begins during the freshman year in the Career Resource Center with a placement rate of 95 to 98 percent after graduation.
