Every year Concordia International hosts its annual Study Abroad Video Contest! Show the Concordia community what it’s like to study abroad, the connections you have made and your reflections on your host country, culture, and community. The video contest is open to all Concordia students embarking on or currently on exchange abroad.

To those considering going on exchange, the rumours are true; it is an incredible journey of self discovery and life-long memories. And who knows, you might just find yourself a new home away from home.
