Get Set For An Unforgettable Time At University

By Concordia University Modified on August 26, 2016

You'll be part of a vibrant community on campus - in the heart of a world-class city!

Save

For many Concordians, time spent outside the classroom makes up some of the most memorable, influential moments of their university years. With more than 200 clubs and associations, there's an inspiring range of opportunities for getting involved in student life.

Build the world you want to live in
Concordians are working to create positive change. Just some of what students are up to:

  • putting on a daily by-donation vegan lunch at the People's Potato
  • encouraging environmentally-friendly practices with initiatives backed by Sustainable Concordia
  • promoting social justice and youth empowerment in Gulu, Uganda through CEED Concordia

Enhance your education
Mechanical engineering student Antonio Badea could barely use a wrench when he first joined the student-run Concordia chapter of the Society of Automotive Engineers. But he stuck around and ended up one of only ten Canadian students invited to the Infiniti Engineering Academy finals, a competition judged by industry-leading engineers.

Make time to play
If there's a recreational sport you're interested in, chances are good you'll find it at Concordia. Just some of our student-organized leagues and clubs you could join: ice hockey, Ultimate, dodgeball, hurling and Gaelic football, dragon boating, lacrosse, skiing, snowboarding and snowshoeing.

Experience joie de vivre in an amazing city
Montreal is one of the greatest places in the world to be a student, with the affordable rent and inexpensive transportation to match. You'll discover the magic of daily life in a cosmopolitan city that's full of European charm and influences from around the world, complete with an incredibly rich cultural and culinary scene. "In my neighbourhood, I know all the cafes and I love my favourite bakery and grocery store," says film animation major Marielle Dalpe. "You can create a really nice life for yourself."
