Concordia University - Nebraska Reviews

"Concordia prepares excellent teachers. Professors, who genuinely care for the educational goals of their students, are mentors. I also gained a solid base of networking with other professionals through both the faculty and peers. Concordia provides opportunities for students to grow as people, reaching beyond academic areas of each person. I will always be thankful for the education I received at Concordia, and would recommend it for anyone hoping to be fully prepared as an educator while gaining a positive college experience.Read Less"

"I loved the flexibility of night classes. Professors were always very knowledgeable. Staff was super friendly."

"I thought it was a waste of time and money. I would never recommend this school. I was too far into the program to drop it. The instructors were poor. The only meaningful part was the cohort I was in. My fellow teachers were great to work with."

"My Masters education at Concordia has been a great experience. The professors are extremely knowledgeable and always ready to help you achieve your educational goals. Because I am teaching during the day, I also appreciate the flexibility of afternoon/evening classes. My overall Concordia experience has been rewarding!"

"Please seek another school. The communication is very poor and then go out their way to make you seem stupid. They hold you hostage with financial aid and really will not go out of their way to really help you. I'm a graduate student with two classes to go and I won't make it . I asked for a Incomplete after being forced to relocate my home. I had a 87 in my class with two assignments to go . My instructor didn't want to help me and although the program director started to I was left with the same instructor and she pretty much flunked me on assignments I passed the first time around. I made a c in the class but my GPA was 2.99 which required me to take the course again to get the point I needed to stay in a masters program. Go figure. Now that I'm retaking the class independently, I can't pass the assignments . Rip off . I may be starting off losing have of my credits. to do so. Thinking of speaking with a lawyer. Stay Away and they are anything but Christian , at least with this black student. SheenaRead Less"

"I am very proud to have earned both undergraduate and graduate degrees from Concordia University in Seward, Nebraska. This is an excellent school that offers a wide range of academic programs. The classes are smaller, and so a more personal connection is made between the faculty and students. The Family Life program has prepared me very well for my vocation in ministry."

"This school is amazing so far. It may sound stupid, but the syllabi are amazing. It has everything laid out in an easy to read, no guessing involved format. At the graduate level, I have enough to worry about without guess on due dates. No guessing here. My teacher is awesome. Although my current course is student driven, she still maintains a presence, which is rare. I cannot say enough about how much I enjoy this school, the staff, and my classmates."

"Concordia is a good university. Classes are small and professors are helpful."

"Work hard but don't take it too seriously. Learn as much as you can outside of the required classes and use your time wisely. Learn to say "NO" to other plans when you have work to do. Be prepared for a large amount of debt."

"I thought that the college had its pros and cons. I liked the fact that it had degree programs that were available at night. I didn't like that they didn't always seem prepared. They often hired at the last minute which meant the teacher seemed unprepared. There were a lot of adjunct instructors. The campus is beautiful. The people are friendly."

"It is a very good school for education degrees. It is fairly expense, and is hard to pay off with a teaching salary. It has a small college atmosphere which I personally did not like, but others seemed to enjoy. The LTD program can help place you in a job, which is nice. Make sure you consider all your options, because Concordia is significantly more expense than a state university, and does not offer the diversity."

"I think Concordia's graduate program is a great choice for anyone who is already in the workforce and wants to learn a great deal, but cannot spend time commuting to and from school. Their online program really is a lifesaver and taught me what I needed to know."

"This is an excellent program for working educators. We meet as a cohort once a week. The professors were easily accessible and flexible with school obligations, such as parent teacher conferences and open houses."

"I believe that this graduate program is a great option for professionals who are currently teaching, but want to further their education at the same time. Although this program is much more expensive than the first master's program I completed, I feel like the support I get from my professors and the academic quality I am receiving are worth the money. I also appreciate the Christian atmosphere and kind professionals that I am working with."

"The pros about graduate school is learning more about teaching children. The cons about graduate school is the cost."

"I do not have any cons of my graduate program. I like that I have the choice between online and face to face. I have benefited greatly from my education."
