Concordia basics for undergrads

Starting your undergraduate studies in winter 2026? Let's face it, university studies can be a totally different reality from what you may have experienced in high school or CEGEP. To help you prepare for a successful first term, you are invited to join this workshop to:

• Learn the basics about your degree, like the differences between a major and minor, or between a core course and elective course.

• Gain some insights into university culture such as common terminology and how things work at Concordia.

• Get an overview of different class components and some introductory information about course registration. 

• Explore student life and what to expect when you become a Concordian.

Register for upcoming workshop dates below (event start times vary).

If you also plan on attending a Course Registration: How to use the system information session, we recommend you attend a Concordia Basics for Undergrads session first.
