The Concordia University hallways look a lot different these days. For more than 50 international students, however, campus life at CUW continues on.


Nearly 40 Chinese students, as well as 18 from South Korea and several African countries, make up the international student population still on Concordia’s campus.

Concordia, along with its international partner institutions and parents, discussed options for the remaining students amidst talks of a coronavirus shutdown. Together, they came to the conclusion that Concordia would provide the safest environment, while still allowing students the best opportunity to continue their education.
