Undergraduate Cost and Financial Aid
Yes, we’re a private university. However, through scholarships and other financial aid, our students pay close to, or in some cases, less than students at larger public universities. Each of our full-time undergraduate students receives financial aid, which isn’t typical at public institutions.
At Concordia, you’ll get a private education at a similar cost to larger public universities. Not to mention perks like free parking (and plenty of parking spots) as well as free admission to athletic events.
