What Students Are Saying

If you contact Concordia Admissions they will gladly send you information and also invite you to tour their campus. It is located in a beautiful area of Southern Calif; Irvine...the safest city in the USA.
Bianca from Irvine, CA
Be outgoing and meet new people. If a student knows someone who is going to Concordia them, they tend to stay inside the little bubble with that friend. Don't be afraid to say hi to some random person-- Students at Concordia are very friendly!
Lindsay from Casco, MI
Talk to financial aid, find out about the different programs scholarships, and contact the different programs you're interested in. Concordia is a small enough school that they'll remember you so when you arrive you already have a foot in the door.
Haley from Klamath Falls, OR
Hmmm...Tips. I would have to say fill out as many scholarships as possible. This is a price-y school but it is worth it. Everyone is pretty friendly. The school is small enough that if you join multiple clubs and get involved, you can know almost everyone, but big enough to where you will still discover new people that you didn't know attended this school. talking about clubs, get yourself involved in school sports, clubs, and/ or activities. It's a god way to get involved in the school and make for a better college experience.
Kristina from Temecula, CA
If your a senior in high school and think your grades are to low to get accepted anywhere try CUI. When it comes to admissions they want to see what you have to offer to them, so make sure to do community service and be active in some sort of extracurricular. Stay in touch with them, they like students who are serious.
Natalie from Monrovia, CA
Write questions down of what you expect from the college you are applying for. Visit the school and the area, don't just visit once, visit several times. Ask people who live around the college, of areas to stay away from. Keep all school receipts in a folder for your parents tax records or your taxes.
Michelle from Santa Maria, CA
I encourage prospective students to maintain a range of dedication to both academics and community service.
Yesenia from Rancho Cucamonga, CA
Dont get behind, Enjoy the China experience!
Shawn from Tavernier, FL
The campus is great for one on one learning. Classes are generally small so there is more flexibility in the class.
