Concordia shares in the sadness and uncertainty over the closure of Providence Christian College in Pasadena, California. We are here to ease transitions for students, families, staff, faculty, and leadership as we keep this community in our hearts and prayers.
Concordia is also committed to working with Providence students as a resource for transferring and completing their degrees. Concordia is a premier, private Christian university with undergraduate majors in:
Concordia is among a distinctive group of universities that offer a coherent liberal arts curriculum for all of its students. Rather than asking you to cobble together a meaningful general education experience from a vast array of disconnected distribution courses, our signature curriculum Enduring Questions & Ideas (Q&I, for short) is carefully crafted so that you discover the purpose of a liberal arts education - to grow intellectually, ethically, and spiritually. Through Q&I Core and Exploration courses, all Concordia students engage in an academic experience that provides a foundation for further learning and for life.
Concordia also provides many academic and co-curricular opportunities and support services to help you keep your momentum in a new environment. These include an honors program, study abroad, music ensembles, Veterans Resource Center, Writing Studio, Academic Coaching, Disability Access Services, and Career Services.
To support your social and physical well-being, explore numerous student clubs, NCAA II athletics teams, and Living Learning Communities within our residence halls.
Concordia’s campus is nestled in the heart of Southern California in Irvine — one of the safest and most desirable cities in the U.S. — known for its thriving community of startups and established businesses, and frequent placement on “best places to live” lists by outlets like Forbes, The Daily Beast, and Businessweek. Just 6 miles from the Pacific Ocean and less than 30 miles from the Santa Ana Mountains, our campus is also within easy reach of San Diego (90 minutes), Los Angeles (60 minutes), and Disneyland (20 minutes).
