Located in the heart of Montreal, Quebec — Concordia is one of Canada’s most innovative, diverse and comprehensive learning communities. Our two campuses are unique learning environments that blend cutting-edge facilities with historical architecture to appeal to students of all interests.

Concordia offers a variety of student experiences and encourages academic flexibility with nearly 300 undergraduate programs and 200 graduate programs, diplomas and certificates. With our four faculties, the School of Graduate Studies, and the School of Extended Learning, Concordia’s programs are widely recognized and rank highly in Canada and internationally.

Top 10 reasons to choose Concordia

1. Location – Montreal is bilingual and multicultural with a European feel and a strong connection to other major urban centres such as New York and Toronto. A student city with four large universities and dozens of smaller colleges, Montreal has a young, magnetic quality which makes it an epicenter for art, culture and new technology.


2. Two Campus University – With the Sir George Williams Campus located in the heart of downtown Montreal and the Loyola Campus in the scenic neighbourhood of Notre-Dame-de-Grâce, students are able to access the best of both worlds.


3. Facilities – As we continue developing our facilities to maintain state-of-the-art learning environments, our commitment to growth is evident on both campuses.


4. Program Choices – Over 500 undergraduate and graduate degree programs, as well as many continuing education, distance learning and executive education offerings.


5. Flexibility – We recognize that each student is unique; therefore, we provide opportunities for you to shape your academic life with multidisciplinary, cross-faculty learning and numerous courses available during the daytime and evening.


6. Amazing Learning Community – Composed of students, staff, colleagues, advisors, alumni, researchers, counsellors, volunteers, and many others, all interacting, sharing and supporting one another to create a one of a kind community, distinctly Concordia.


7. Diversity – With a remarkably eclectic student body, our 45,000 students represent Canada’s First Nations, French Canadians, first- and second-generation immigrant individuals and families from around the globe.


8. Real World Connection – At Concordia your education involves much more than theory and textbooks. Here you will enjoy the benefit from the strong relationship Concordia has with the professional community, through programs such as the Institute for Co-operative Education.


9. Community Involvement – One of Concordia’s greatest strengths is its commitment to giving back to the community through volunteer initiatives.


10. Sustainability – We demonstrate that taking responsibility for our environment must be thought of in larger terms than that of the campus itself. We believe that all healthy, positive growth must possess a forward – thinking commitment to our students, and to our world.
