    Am learning a lot

    Learning at Concordia is different than the learning I did in high school. From my very first class I became aware that I would be thinking differently than ever before. That first class was my inquiry seminar, and in that class we were introduced to the way Concordia classes were generally conducted. We were able to discuss, but in a manner much more meaningful than I had ever experienced. We talked about the world in a way that we had to think about our views, the views of others, and how we can overcome these to make progress in the world. We discussed knowledge and how it was acquired, and how we can take from the ideas of others and use our own to build upon the general pot of knowledge in the world. In all of my classes it has been stressed that we use not only the things we learn in class, but take information from other classes or other experiences to contribute information and make significant connections between classes. We are encouraged to even take part in community through volunteering, learn about ways that we as students actually have the potential to produce change. We can change ourselves, our peers, and even potential to change the world, through involvement in community and using the skills we acquire here at Concordia. Professors encourage us to do our best and push us to really think deeply, and make our work mean something more than just another school project. It is great to know that what I am doing is important!
    Am enjoying being here

    I enjoy being at Concordia very much! The atmosphere of students is great. It means a lot about the people here that students and professors open doors for each other, and seems to be just natural. The students, professors, and staff are quite cheery and usually say hi as you pass by on the sidewalks. The campus is kept very beautiful, and most of all the bell tower that rings, is my favorite part. Along with the campus itself, the activities are great. The student groups for service, entertainment, and ministry are very important. The entertainment student group puts on events throughout the school week as well as on weekends to provide activities when students are not studying, or just want to be in community with others. The ministry on campus, such as chapel every day, is great for those religious individuals. It is great that the school has a time during every school day for non-denominational worship, and Wednesday evening service. It makes being spiritually involved through school much easier, and makes the connection to Concordia stronger. The service student group on campus is great as well. It is important in college that we are able to be involved in the community or city we live in as well as in the school community. The volunteer opportunities through this group give students the chance to get involved, and feel more a part of the area they live in. The combination of all of these things has made my experience at Concordia very enjoyable!
    Bang for the buck

    Even though Concordia is a private college, and more expensive than a state or community school, I feel what I have spent has been worth it. The living environment, the dorms, are kept very clean and the food that is in the dining hall is great! These two things can mean a lot as far as the experience overall for some students. However, as I explained before, the learning experience is awesome as well, and well worth the money for a one-on-one connection with professors that genuinely want you to succeed. Also, the things the college does such as the ministry on campus, the service commission, and the entrainment provided are great, and have proved very worth while in my experience. As well, Concordia is a school that wants students to succeed and have a great staff that will help students in need of financial help, find the money they need to attend. The opportunity for on campus jobs are available to all students, and jobs are very manageable hours with class schedules and other commitments. Even though it is pricey, the education, connections, and overall experience is well worth the money.
    Tips for prospective students

    As a prospective student, it is very hard to know what you will want for a college. Therefore, going to Concordia and spending the night for an on-campus visit is very important. There is an awesome atmosphere that may not be experienced in just a tour. Spending the night gives prospective students a chance to experience the dorms, meet students, and see what the dining hall is like. As well visiting a class will help deciding. I visited a class that had to do with my prospective major and found that I really enjoyed it and cannot wait to take the class next year.
    Great for these types of students

    Students who are ready to be academically challenged and who love community will love Concordia. However, there are many different types of people here, and all are very well accepted.There are many clubs for people with different interests, including an intercultural center, and office of student leadership for students to start clubs. Even though it may be a Lutheran school, all religions are welcomed. I think Concordia is great for those who want to find a great school with one-on-one attention from professors who will push you to success, as well as finding great friends, and have awesome experiences.

    Am learning a lot

    I have learned so much up at Concordia. I found the classes challenging, but I enjoyed working out any problems I had wih my fellow students. The professors are open to discussion and are willing to help. In high school I had teachers telling me left and right that college professors could care less about you, but when I was looking for help, they were there helping me every step of the way. I found that I have a passion for the productions of plays and all the technical work that goes into them.
    Am enjoying being here

    The students and staff on Concordias campus are warm and welcoming. The Campus is beautiful, and the food is pritty good. I made amazing connections with the girls who live on in my dorm, and spent a lot of time in the hallway of my floor chatting, studying. When it came to classes I found myself challenged, but capable of succeeding in the task at hand, with time to spare.
    Bang for the buck

    The dinning services was nominated for there buffet style facility. The teachers do their jobs, and the custodial staff keeps everything in working order. In coming to Concordia you are paying for quality.
    Tips for prospective students

    Be sure to find something to do on campus. there are so many groups on campus it's almost overwhelming, but once you find something stick with it. If you can't find something from the vast list of activities you can always make your own club.
    Great for these types of students

    Students who can get to class are best fit for this school. If you don't go to class you're not going to get the grades.

    Am learning a lot

    All of the classes offered by Concordia have been extremely useful for me. I was a little bit disappointed with my writing class (a required class, along with oral communication) but it was not so much that the class itself was bad. I learned a lot from it. I just had a bad experience with a teacher. I heard from a lot of my friends that their teachers were amazing, however mine just turned out to be an extreme feminist and refused to give good grades out to guys unless she thought you agreed with her. Other than that though, all of my classes have been great. Every time that I have had a problem in a class I have been able to talk to the professor and either get the problem resolved right away or at least learn what I could do to resolve the problem.
    Am enjoying being here

    The atmosphere is great for students, and there are a lot of events put on by the CEC (Campus Entertainment Commission). This school is great for chemistry and biology majors (like myself), and there are plans to massively overhaul the entire building in which bio and chem are held. There is also a new business building being built which is going to be awesome in the future.
    For guys this is more important, but this school has an extremely high ratio of girls.
    There are also plenty of sports and intramural opportunities here, and you can also decide to work alongside the professors and other workers here if you want. It is overall an amazing school.
    Bang for the buck

    The school is expensive at times, but the amount of financial aid that the school gives is almost always enough to make it just as cheap as a in-state college.
    Tips for prospective students

    Don't walk under the bell tower, you will be shunned if you do. Ha ha, some urban legend. But seriously, your orientation leaders will tell you almost everything you need to know, and even if you aren't sure enough to just sign up, go to the school and visit! There are a lot of people (who are students mind you) who are willing to show you around and give you an unbiased account of the school. Yeah they are told to tell you certain things like Our choir won an academy award! or whatever, but in reality, the people who show you around will just tell you how they have seen it in their experience here, and will definitely give you a real insiders scoop.

    You might want to bring a car, even though the college will tell you it is not needed it is a really good idea. I didn't bring mine, and now I have to find rides everywhere. There is a great bus service, I'm just not the type of person who can memorize bus schedules, or carry them around with me.
    Great for these types of students

    I think that this school is great for any type of students. The tri-college program lets you take programs at other colleges without paying extra, so definitely take advantage of that!

    Am learning a lot

    As a freshman, you have to take something called an Inquiry Seminar. This class is ridiculous. You're given a variety of classes to choose from, but the choices are not that great. Plus, this class has absolutely NOTHING to do with your major. It's just a class Concordia wants you to take to integrate you into the school. So, a lot of work, for nothing.
    I give this 4 stars because the Intro to Psych class (by Olson) I'm taking is amazing, as well as my Norwegian class is very intense. Other than that, you are required to take a lot of b.s. classes (Wellness=health, religion, written and oral comm)
    Am enjoying being here

    Fargo and Moorhead have absolutely nothing to offer college students. The stores and malls (if you can call it a mall) are small and limited.
    Everyone here is very religious (a lutheran school, who would figure?) and it can be off putting and isolating. The school is nice, but very traditional.
    Bang for the buck

    - The food is not that great. Same thing, different day.
    + The school has many free activities for students.
    Tips for prospective students

    VISIT!
    Be aware of your comfort zone. If you prefer a traditional college that is focused on academics, Concordia might not be your best fit. When I go to classes, I am always welcomed with musicals being sung and prayers.

    Great for these types of students

    The school is good for plain students. I do not mean this in a negative way. Coming from a large metropolitan area to Moorhead is very underwhelming. There is not a lot to do here.
    This school is good for people who have grown up and are comfortable with small towns. Also, everyone here sings! The majority of students are in some type of choir, band, theatre, or musical activity. If you are none of these things, I would take caution when considering the school.
    Bottom line: if you are a religious theatre/music major, you'll love it here.

    Like any school, Concordia has its ups and downs. I have mostly discovered ups, however. The academics are challenging but still enjoyable.
    Am enjoying being here

    Ask any Concordia student what some of their favorite parts of this place are, and I'd bet 99% of them would mention the people or the community feeling in their list. The Cobber community is just so wonderful and tight-knit and family-like. What's not to love? :)
    Bang for the buck

    A lot of times you forget how much the insane tuition is because you're learning so much and loving it so much, but when those bills show up, I'd be lying if I said a little part of you doesn't wilt inside. You just have to decide that money isn't everything.
    Great for these types of students

    Those who want:
    -small private school
    -tight community feeling
    -really really long cold winters
    -amazing music
    -college town with other universities

    I am always learning something new and interesting in most of my classes. Of course there are lots of reading required, but that just helps you understand the idea more when you discuss it in class. Professors challenge your ideas so you can think critically, which is actually kind of fun.
    Am enjoying being here

    If you don't immerse yourself in any of the school activities here then you'll be bored out off your mind. The musicals they have here are wonderful and great because the students are actually passionate about what they do. The clubs here are super fun and they don't require you to go to every meeting. I love it here!
    Tips for prospective students

    Concordia College is like it's own little community. If you don't like people in your space all the time and don't like how the school is always offering something to do then this probably isn't the right school for you.

    Will learn a lot

    There are so many different classes to take and so many opportunities to explore. I feel I will never want to leave the classroom.
    Will enjoy being here

    For your first two weeks, you stay with your 'club' which is with you through your inquiry class AND your first communications class. They want to make sure you will make good friends and socialize. They also have something to do EVERY weekend on campus!
    Bang for the buck

    Tuition is a lot, as you probably know, but totally worth it. I have talked with my admissions advisor more than I ever talked to my high school counselor. They want you to be successful and have a good time.
    Tips for prospective students

    VISIT! I visited twice, and even stayed the night in a dorm with a random student. Visiting the college helps you decide if that's where you want to spend for years.

    The environment at Concordia exudes a passion for learning; however, this only occurs when one applies themselves to their classes, which is the case no matter what school you go to. What makes Concordia stand out is the critical thinking that is implemented by the students, which can be seen throughout campus. The faculty truly invest in the students, and it is easy to see that they want their students to succeed. The combination of motivated, critically minded students and excellent faculty make Concordia a place where one is constantly learning new things.
    Am enjoying being here

    Due to the small size of the school - about 2500 students - there is a definite feeling of community on campus. Even when my high school came to Concordia to participate in the Choral Festival, I distinctly remember feeling completely at home on the campus. Students open the doors for each other, cheerfully smile and greet prospective students or classmates, and are consistently genial and welcoming to everyone they encounter.
    Bang for the buck

    Although Concordia is a private college, and thus significantly more expensive than a state/community school option, the money is well spent when one considers the quality of the education being received. As I noted earlier, the learning environment at Concordia is top-notch, and exudes excellence and a passion for knowledge. The faculty are friendly, and legitimately desire the success of their students. Fellow students become good friends, and subsequently challenge each other to succeed and perform to the best of their ability. Overall, Concordia is a unique place where an amicable community and a superb education are combined.
    Tips for prospective students

    Be sure to get an on-campus tour; experiencing Concordia's campus and community is a great way to see if it is a good fit for you. Additionally, talk to the faculty of the program you desire to major in - I guarantee they will answer any and all questions.
    Great for these types of students

    Students who have a passion for learning, who want to become a part of a close-knit community, and desire to be challenged to think critically will find Concordia an ideal place to pursue their education.

    At Concordia so far, I have been able to explore different areas with the core curriculum. I entered as a Chemistry major and pre-med student and am now adding a Communications minor because I've enjoyed obtaining skills from both Written Communications and Oral Communications (so far) and found that they will be very helpful in advancing my career. However, I feel that some of my teachers in high school were better than some of my professors here. It really depends on the professor and learning style of the student.
    Am enjoying being here

    Concordia has many events provided through campus organizations. CEC (Campus Entertainment Commission) holds grocery bingo and other events involving things such as movies, dances, guest speakers and music. There are plenty of organizations to become involved in based on many different interests or goals (music, sports, environmental alliances, volunteering, foam weapon fighting club...). Many refer to Concordia's campus as the Concordia Bubble because there is so much going on that students rarely need to leave! However, when you do leave, Fargo-Moorhead isn't all that exciting if you've lived near a large metropolitan area all of your life.
    Bang for the buck

    This really depends on the amount of scholarships a student gets. Concordia offers many scholarships based on academics, music...etc. I honestly would not attend Concordia if I had not received scholarships. I feel that I could find a college that I like almost as much as Concordia that would be much cheaper. However, other schools usually don't provide free tutoring, tickets to attend sporting and music events, and other perks like Concordia does. The only extra cost involved in studying abroad for a semester or year is for the student's plane ticket; many other schools charge higher tuitions for semesters abroad. Concordia also has small class sizes which helps justify the high tuition.
    Tips for prospective students

    Prospective students should definitely aim to receive scholarships. Concordia offers many. Also, they should get to know upperclassmen. They can help students choose classes and professors that work best for the student and his or her goals. And VISIT! Stay overnight in the dorms and see if you like the atmosphere!
    Great for these types of students

    Students who have a strong desire to be well-rounded and accumulate skills that allow them to succeed in many different areas would most likely love Concordia. The core requirements are designed to not only create well-rounded students, but to explore other areas of interest in the student is not completely sure about his or her choice of major. Students who are not religious shouldn't be discouraged; there are many students here who are also not religious.

    I am learning so much. I have always been interested in music, but I have never studied music theory until coming up here. I have learned immensely from my professors and the different departments that this school has to offer me.

    I have some of the most amazing people that I surround myself with up here. They are phenomenal. Everyone here is so dedicated and eager to learn their field of study and the professors here are wonderful. There are many options for food, though sometimes you get sick of it, that is going to happen anywhere that you go.

    As a freshman with the first semester under her belt, I have learned so much already! I have taken general chemistry, biology, speech, and a C.S. Lewis class. The professors strive to draw connections between their areas of study and others. You learn so much more this way and you become exposed to many ideas!
    Am enjoying being here

    Concordia has a strong emphasis on community; Freshman Orientation is a week-long event that you spend with 10-20 other freshman, 2 Orientation Leaders, and a faculty mentor. This is called your club. You then have 2 classes first semester with your clubbies and you get to know them really well. Life-long friendships are made because of this process and helps make college an enjoyable place to be!
    Bang for the buck

    It's pretty expensive, but you get what you pay for. Most of the professors are the top in their respective fields; if you want to learn, they will help you in every way they can. You have to work hard, but it will all be worth it when you get a job because of your outstanding skills.
    Tips for prospective students

    Find people to study with. I know this is what everyone says, but you will be able to have so much more fun in college if you get your homework done first and then go play! Have a set time where you and someone else go to the library or another quiet spot and do homework for a few hours. You can then hold each other accountable and encourage each other.
    Great for these types of students

    Concordia is a college that expects you to be actively involved in your education. If you don't understand something in class, don't be afraid to ask the professor and be sure to use their posted office hours. If you are a person who likes to skip class to sleep in, Concordia isn't for you.

    I'm a freshman this year and well I guess I haven't gotten to the point of experiencing activities. I'm focusing on my study habits so I can say that I'm learning a lot about myself first. If you're wanting a general answer then I would have to say it really depends on your major, I am thinking about going into Pre-Optometry. Therefore, I am taking rigorous Science courses. The professors are really nice and are willing to help you. However, it is your responsibility to ask for help and look for your resources.
    Am enjoying being here

    It's not diverse, so if you're looking for a really diverse place this wouldn't be one of them. But! The good thing about that is that you get to explore outside of your own culture and really immerse yourself to where other people are from. I like teaching other people about who I am. The campus is small and the resources are great. You won't get lost at all! That's another bonus!
    Bang for the buck

    If I didn't get a some few scholarships that I won, I don't think I would have came here. However, what really inspired me to come here was to get out of my comfort zone from the home-life and so far, I'm experiencing a lot of things! Also, the setting looks nice and the campus is beautiful and small.
    Tips for prospective students

    Apply to a lot of schools and not just settle on anything your first year. Try different classes unless you are really sure that you want to major in a certain field! Work hard! And college will test your study habits and your strength so be prepared! :)
    Great for these types of students

    Concordia is a great school for students looking to make close connections with both their professors and peers. It is great to see that almost everyone that attends Concordia is involved in some sort of activity on campus-music seems to be a favorite. Concordia is a great school that offers a fabulous education along with lifelong connections.
    Tips for prospective students

    Be sure to do everything you can to get as many scholarships as possible. You should also try to have a general idea of what you are going into so you can start courses directed towards your major immediately after fulfilling the core requirements.
    Academic Rigor

    Concordia does a great job of forcing you into study habits and really making you think. They also do a great job with critical thinking and help students to think about how they can become responsibly engaged in the world.
    Dorm Life

    The dorms on campus are not as bad as one might expect, they are clean and super homey. However, there are not many things to keep students entertained.
    Food and Dining

    Concordia's dining center is basically UNREAL. The food is amazing and everyone that works there is so friendly. My friends that come to visit are always so jealous of how great our food is. The wide variety makes it easy for any type of eater to enjoy a meal.

    A good college if you are looking to go into choral music. It is easy to find time to talk to your professors. There is an absence of a Christ like community.
    Tips for prospective students

    Make sure you have an idea of what you want to go into before you go through orientation. The admissions counselors are amazing at what they do. Make sure you like the location of Fargo/Moorhead.
    Academic Rigor

    There are some professors that get caught up with their own pride and teaching techniques, that they do not change their style of teaching if it is needed. There are a lot of great professors that will take time out of their day to talk with you about your academics. You can get a great education at Concordia college.
    Dorm Life

    The dorm rules are a bit laid back compared to other schools. It can be tough to live in a small space with another person, but as long as you set up your ground rules at the beginning of the year, you will be fine. The residential assistants on each floor are very helpful if you need them.
    Food and Dining

    Concordia has a great dining service. Their meal plans are at an affordable price, and are not an extreme amount of money. There are many different options to eat on campus.
    What to do for fun

    There are plenty of activities that occur on campus each week. Concordia brings in all sorts of people to entertain the students. There are also many different religious services that you can attend.

    This college is great for music majors and business majors. There is a brand new building for the business center which will allow for expansion in this department.

    Right now I am taking classes towards my CORE requirements. The coursework is challenging and insightful. I feel I am well on my way to becoming a well-rounded Cobber. Teachers here are very thoughtful and truly look in the best interests for the students.

    Concordia's campus is beautiful and it feels like home (I am from a small town.) There are always planned, free events on campus that are also thought provoking, college students should be engaged in the world. Concordia is great about including that into our daily lives.
    Bang for the buck

    Concordia does have a high tuition, but compared to other private colleges is on the more affordable end. The quality of learning here is represented definitely by the tuition. Many large scholarships are offered through Concordia, and have proven to be helpful to many. The scholarships make this college affordable/
    Tips for prospective students

    I would recommend this school for students that are musically or spiritually inclined. Theater is also a good here. Fargo-Moorhead is a fairly large city with a hometown feel, it's the best of both worlds. Come and tour Concordia! Most students feel like they are at home when they tour this school, whether they come a large or small city.

    Others have mentioned the Inquiry seminar you have to take your first year here, and no it doesn't really have much to do with your major but mine was interesting, because it was something I really knew nothing about and it was nice to expand my horizons into different fields. I am a Biology/Pre-Veterinary major and in just one year I learned so much in my biology classes alone its unbelievable.

    I met some amazing people on campus this past year, just being in the dorms and in other extracurricular things. I became a member of a club called the Exotic Animal Care and Husbandry Club or EACH. I enjoyed it so much, that they offered me President position for this upcoming year. I am also in the Athletic Band which is a blas. There is always something to do and new people to meet here.

    It's crazy expensive, but I really enjoy it. I love that the class sizes are small and the teachers here actually know your name and things about you.
    Tips for prospective students

    Get involved! If I wouldn't have gotten as involved as I had, I would not have met my roommates for next year, become a huge part of EACH or had as much fun. There are activities for anyone.
    Great for these types of students

    I think Concordia is great for anyone. No matter who you are or what your interests are, there is always something here to make you feel like part of the Concordia College- Moorhead family.

    The teachers at Concordia are kind and helpful. Each teacher is there for their students and wants them to succeed. They are always there for their students and some of them even give students there personal numbers if they need help with something. They want the students to succeed more then in just their classroom. Learning is easier with teachers that are willing to give their time to teach you.

    Everyone is so friendly at Concordia. As a freshmen this year I felt very welcomed into the college and just felt right at home the moment I got their. There is so many different activities for all the students on campus as well. It's hard not to enjoy being at Concordia.
    Tips for prospective students

    Just get involved in things that you enjoy and don't be affraid to get to know the staff as well as other students.
