Being an international student at Concordia
Office of international education
Concordia personnel work with all international students, ensuring that their government requirements are met, academic studies progress smoothly, and that every student is acclimated to the country, cultures and society of the Concordia family, the City of Seward and the United States. For contact and other information, please visit the Web page for the office of international education. Students are also encouraged to stop by the office for more information.
Faculty advisors
The Concordia faculty view their positions at the university as ministries, willingly making themselves available to all students for help and guidance. Each student is assigned an academic advisor whose responsibility it is to monitor closely the academic progress of the student and provide needed assistance in time of need. Academic advisors, however, do not limit themselves to matters of academics only, but they develop positive relationships with their students that are cherished by students for years to come.
Academic resource center
Concordia University is a student-centered institution. The university wants every student to be the very best student he/she can be and provides an academic support center to help students with their courses. Weekly group study sessions, test reviews, and individualized tutoring are available at the ARC, located in Link Library.
Personnel services and counseling
The student life office and the student activities office promote the students' personal and interpersonal development according to university guidelines. General personal counseling is available from both the counseling office and the campus pastor's office.
Conversation partners
International students can be matched up with American students who become their conversation partners. Through the year they meet regularly in a relaxed social environment and practice their English just talking about anything and everything. This is an excellent time for the student to ask questions about the things that he/she sees and does not understand.
