Review of Concordia University Texas

from Conroe, TX

Describe your college in three sentences.

Concordia University Texas is unique. It gives the size of a small school, with the education value that rivals any major 4 year university. One word describes Concordia University Texas best, family.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Don't be afraid to become invloved or go to the many on campus social gatherings that Student Life organizes. Utilize the library, it provides top notch services such as a law database that usually is only available once you get to law school, and not to mention free printing.

Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?

Just because size is compromised at this university don't make the assumption that the academics are as well. It is the exact opposite here, because of the small classroom size students get more direct attention in all classes which is very useful to incoming freshmen that may not grasp the material as quickly.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

Dorm life definitely stands apart from the typical on campus housing that most students encounter. Each dorm room is occupied by only 2 students, with furniture already provided. The RA's are wonderful and very understanding, there are few if any issues ever when it comes to living on campus. In addition to great RA's there are also many social gatherings planned for the students who choose to live on campus like various movie and game nights along which are always coupled with plenty of free food.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

The cafe provides wonderful food choices that are not only healthy but delicious as well. Along with the cafe there is an on campus Starbucks that never fails to give great service.

What’s there to do for fun at your college?

Student lounge has pool tables ping pong tables along with flat screen tvs. There is a gym and basketball court that's not only accessible to student athletes but students as well. Many sites to see and enjoy that are minutes away from campus such as dining and lake Travis.

Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?

Majority of services and accommodations usually only found at larger universities.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Social students with big aspirations that want a small school in the perfect college town, Austin, Texas.

How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?

Campus security is on call and available 24/7 even on holidays and provide escorts during the evening hours for all students or faculty that request it. Security is always on patrol and take their jobs serious so safety is not an issue at all.
