NEW YORK CITY
There are few cities in the world as exciting and as celebrated as New York. Whether it’s history, culture or entertainment that you want, it’s a place that will never disappoint.
As one of the world’s financial and business powerhouses,
New York and its surroundings is also a great location for
anyone aspiring to success in an international career in
business, science, law, or the arts. All leading universities in
and around New York have close links with many of the
best companies located in this great city.
Concordia College enjoys a superb location in the affluent
village of Bronxville, which is around 30 minutes by train to
Grand Central Station, Manhattan. While this makes it very
easy for students to explore the sights and sounds of New
York City, Bronxville’s immediate surroundings and
proximity to the picturesque Hudson Valley make it a very
desirable location in its own right. Extending 150 miles
above the tip of Manhattan north to Albany, the Hudson
Valley is designated as a National Heritage Area, and is
steeped in history, natural beauty and culture.
