Message from the President


 

Welcome to Concord University.

For more than 150 years, Concord has served the southern region of West Virginia, southwest Virginia and beyond, educating teachers, business leaders, scientists, social workers, as well as future medical and legal professionals. At Concord University, you will experience our commitment to providing high quality, affordable educational experiences that will prepare you to serve the needs of your communities, our state, and any other region to which you are called. Seeing you graduate and watching as you achieve the goal of earning your degree in the field that matters to you most is what Concord University is all about.

As you begin your journey to success at Concord University, we expect you will find challenging classes and leaders who encourage and empower you to succeed while serving others. You will have the opportunity to work with expert faculty, staff, and administrators, people who are dedicated to your success in the classroom, in laboratory and internship settings, and in enhancing your long-term careers and futures. You will also find that our alumni are successful leaders who maintain connections with the University and they often seek to encourage current students in their chosen fields. Concord University will be here for you at every phase of your career path, from student to distinguished alumni. You are now a Mountain Lion and we are happy you have joined our family.

During your time at Concord University, I encourage you to become active and involved in your campus community, within and outside the classroom. An ongoing and varied list of extracurricular activities is available offering opportunities for you to have fun (hiking, fishing, skiing, disk golf and other outdoor activities), to build friendships, and to volunteer in this and other communities, whether domestic or international.

I encourage you to read your Student Catalog carefully, as it contains information about our services, guidelines, and policies. If you have any questions, please contact our faculty or staff for assistance.

It is my wish that you will find your time on “The Campus Beautiful” to be enriching, memorable, and rewarding. I pledge to be here to support your efforts and wish you every success in this new journey!
