What to Expect at Summer Orientation


Summer Orientation is your chance to meet with a member of the Concordia faculty, who will help you pick out and register for your first courses. You’ll also learn more about college life at Concordia, meet other new students and just get a better idea of what to expect when you arrive on campus in the fall.

Once you’ve made your deposit, you’re ready to sign up April 27 (or later) for a Summer Orientation day. We’re hosting three days on campus and one in the Twin Cities. We encourage you to attend an on-campus date so you may fully experience Concordia’s campus and culture.
