Introductory work in computer applications and an exposure to fine arts round out a good high school schedule. We also recognize the curriculum limitations of smaller high schools, where courses in a second language may not be available or where scheduling problems force choices between college preparatory courses. Students not following all of the above curriculum who are otherwise well-prepared will still receive strong consideration. A limited number of students enroll at Concordia after their junior year in high school. This happens very infrequently and is available only to those with exceptional academic records.
Students often experience unwarranted concern about test scores.
While these scores are an important factor, your high school record is clearly more important in predicting your academic success at Concordia. You may submit your application before taking an entrance examination. Admission is contingent upon satisfactory character references and honorable dismissal from the institution last attended. The admissions committee prefers recommendations from a teacher or guidance counselor and from someone who knows you outside an academic setting. For admission to advanced standing, you must furnish an official transcript from each post-secondary institution you have attended.
