You can use the Find Your Major tool to help narrow down a major that would be a good fit for you.
It’s perfectly okay to start college undecided about your major. In fact, it’s fairly common! Many Cobbers start down a path toward one major and end up changing directions. Building your best future sometimes includes a few twists and turns.
Here are some ways to point yourself in the right academic direction:
- Take core classes that are aligned with your interests. Exploring will help you identify what you like and what you don't. You can narrow down your options from there.
- Talk to your advisor, career coach, professors, and other students. They can help guide you toward a major that might be a good fit.
- Learn about the experiences of current Cobbers and recent graduates by reading Stories of Cobber Life.
- Take advantage of off-campus opportunities such as internships, service projects, PEAK experiences, and Breakaway trips.
Nearly one-quarter of Concordia students choose to double major and still finish in four years.

Students commuting to Concordia’s campus from great distances have generally faced increased challenges in realizing their potential for full academic success and long-term persistence toward degree completion. If you live beyond a 20-mile radius from campus and still wish to commute to campus for classes and community life, please connect with your admission representative.

You can browse the profiles of other students who have been assigned to the same hall or learning community and select your own roommate. The roommate selection period for fall semester is typically in June.
You can have a certain roommate, but you both need to match during the roommate selection process.

Final roommate and room assignments go out in mid-July.
