Will learn a lot
Class size is 20 and under and there are no TA's.
Will enjoy being here
The tour guide couldn't stop talking about his favoring things about Concordia, it sounds amazing! There are a lot of social events planned.
Bang for the buck
Discovered parking, laptop and tech service, printing, counseling (career or otherwise), and tutoring are all free. Freshmen are allowed a car on campus.
Tips for prospective students
The first 2 years you either need to live with your parents/guardians or on campus. Upside the dorms are HUGE!(compared to other colleges. also freshmen dorms are non-coed) and upperclassmen get the equivalent of an apartment.
Great for these types of students
Concordia is located in the middle of a large city but maintains the feeling of its own small community. It is the type of school were you know the names of everyone in your class.

What to do for fun
for fun here at concordia there are a lot of events that happen. there are game nights, movie nights, there are chapel events, scrimmages, and bingo is the most popular game at concordia. bingo is a great opportunity to have fun and win prizes.
