REVIEWS
Read What Students Are SayingI am a Theology major in the Director of Christian Education (DCE) program here at Concordia and very much like the majority of the class I have taken thus far. I especially like the classes geared towards my two main areas of emphasis and the professors at Concordia are great. The homework load may be much at times but all of the coarse work is worth it in the long run.
Nicholas from Broomfield, CO
It is a very Christian school that always lifts your spirt. The professors are always kind and love to teach. Their programs really help you prepare for life out of college.

Concordia has a very unique campus life. It is good to get involved with even just a few of their many activities. There are many things there that will help you feel at home.
Cynthia
Concorida is an amazing campus. The professors here take your opinion into account and give you as much help as they can give. They are also very knowledgeable about their topics and if they are unsure about a question, they will do the research to give you the right information. Because class sizes are small, there is enough time for real discussion in the class rooms and you don't feel like you're just another person lost in the crowd.
Megan from Harlingen, TX
I am recieving a well rounded eduaction who at Concordia. Well staying connected with my faith.
Amber from Shelbina, MO
I have learned a lot here. The school has really good teachers that are very focused on you and your success. They will put in the time you need for whatever it may be: extra help, extra time for having to miss class, learning more, or having questions.
