Student Life at Concordia
With the majority of Concordia's students living on campus, there is always something going on both during the week and on the weekends. Many of our students come from out of state, meaning they stick around during the weekends. The Student Activities Council regularly schedules fun and safe activities and events like concerts, comedic performances, dances and much more.

During the summer of 2020, the faculty and staff worked so hard for it to be possible for everyone to come back because everyone wanted to be back.”

Paying For College
Concordia offers financial aid to 100% of our full-time undergraduate students. However, that aid doesn't always cover all of your expenses. There are other ways to pay for your education, whether it's earning outside scholarships or holding on-or-off campus jobs.
Concordia Scholarships
If you haven't already, check out the various scholarships we offer to our full-time undergrad students. Be sure to talk to your admissions counselor if you have any questions on what you can qualify for.
Jobs on Campus
Each semester, there is a multitude of jobs available on campus within various departments. This is a good way to hone your skills, learn more about Concordia and even earn extra money for your education.
Outside Scholarships
In addition to the financial aid you can receive from Concordia, there are numerous organizations that provide scholarships for students. You can find outside scholarships based on your home state or your future vocation.
Get To Know Our Hometown
We're located in Seward (pop. 7,200), which has a small-town feel with a close-knit supportive community. Concordia and Seward are intertwined, as a former Concordia president puts it, "What's good for Seward is good for Concordia, and what's good for Concordia is good for Seward."
In Seward, you'll find a busy Rockwell-esque downtown filled with coffee shops, restaurants, an art gallery, a movie theater, a bowling alley and locally-owned stores. Seward is a community where our students and residents feel safe, as it was recently listed as the second safest city in Nebraska and in the top 10% nationwide.
