  Am learning a lot		In the small classes at Concordia every student receives the specialized attention they require. The professors truly care about each of their students. I am in the education program and each of the professors I have for these courses is personally invested in giving this generation's educators the very best training. All of them are either teachers currently or have taught for many many years and have a lot of useful tidbits and tips for us students about what really happens in the classroom.
  Am enjoying being here		I absolutely love this college. The campus is very small and easy to walk. There is always something going on. At least twice a month there is a campus wide movie shown on a large wall, like a drive in or in the only lecture hall, like a movie theater and it is entirely free. I am Christian, so the daily chapel services and nightly worship services are extremely appreciated. I especially enjoy Offerings which is a weekly contemporary worship service. Throughout the year there are many dances for students to attend including the Fall Ball, Boo Ball (Halloween), Yule Ball, a Valentine's day dance and the Spring Formal. Lastly, every dorm is required to do an all dorm event once a semester and an all campus event once a semester. The residential life team truly wants all of the students to connect, so they have put each dorm into a team, and these are called Brother Sister dorms. These dorms get together for a lot of spiritual life activities and Dorm Follies, a tournament of games at the beginning of the year. All of the activities are amazing but I must say that the thing I enjoy the most is being able to hop over to any other dorm and hang out with my friends, whereas at a larger college it could be more difficult to go to other dorms that could be blocks away.
  Bang for the buck		I will admit, Concordia is not cheap, and tuition was just increased. However, if you are very particular about the environment of college you want, and you want a college that places emphasis on religion and academics while still making sure that the students have opportunities to relax, have fun, and cater to their spiritual health. Overall, I get a pretty good bang for my buck.
  Tips for prospective students		Some tips for prospective students are to work closely with the financial aid office to get all the scholarships you qualify for. The financial aid staff works really hard for each student to make sure they are able to attend Concordia if they wish. Another tip is that if you do decide to attend Concordia, try a lot of different stuff. Get involved and I can assure you that you will find a lot of truly amazing people and a lot of new friends that will then be your friends all through your college experience.
  Great for these types of students		This school is a fabulous choice for those looking for a small college and those looking for a college that emphasizes Christianity.

  In three sentences		Concordia University Ann Arbor is a small Christian centered school with teachers care about you and your success. A student looking to grow spiritually can do so here. Only down fall is that there isnt much to do and the tuition is too expensive.
  Tips for prospective students		Take a campus visit while students are on campus. Ask students questions and explore to make sure your positive this place is for you. make sure your family is comfortable with the tuition and see if your eligible for as many scholarships as possible.
  Academic Rigor		Depending on your major some courses can be hard but the teachers will help you out. To graduate you must have 128 credits so pick a minor or make sure you have others courses you want to take.
  Dorm Life		The dorms are situated nicely but for the price, they're not worth it. living in a dorm can be fun, it just depends how you get along with a roommate or a suite mate.
  Food and Dining		The food is okay but has improved. Whats nice is the Nest. The nest is like a concession stand open late for late night snacks.
  What to do for fun		Work out, basketball, fishing, and IM sports. The fun part is up to you, just have to make your own fun.
  Bang for the buck		All in all, the tuition is too high but has some benefits.
  Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus		Since this a Lutheran college, we do have a chapel on campus and have chapel five days a week but not mandatory to attend.
  Great for these types of students		Pre seminary, athletes, or anyone seeking spiritual growth.
  Greek Life		None right now but maybe sometime in the future.
  Campus Safety		Campus is a safe place. not much crime happens here and there aren't much problems here.
