International Community

Concordia international communityEach year, Concordia College welcomes students from around the world to live and study in a true melting pot of culture and viewpoints. Time after time, our students say that one of the things they value most about being at Concordia is the opportunity to live in a diverse environment—and how this increases their respect for both the differences and similarities of people and cultures.

Concordia students come from over 27 states and over 34 countries worldwide, including Angola, Brazil, Costa Rica, Croatia, Guyana, Haiti, Iran, Jamaica, Japan, Republic of South Korea, Peru, Slovakia, Spain, Trinidad and Tobago, and Turkey. Student organizations such as the African Latin Heritage Club and the International Club support and celebrate diversity on campus through student activities such as dinners, dances, fashion shows, and service and outreach programs.
