KINGS AT CONCORDIA COLLEGE

Kings New York is based on the campus of Concordia College, a four-year, coeducational liberal arts college which is part of the Concordia University System. Concordia College offers a fantastic location in which to live and study. The campus is set in the safe, affluent village of Bronxville in Westchester County, New York, and is around 30 minutes by train from the heart of Manhattan.

The campus dates back over one hundred and thirty years and features an array of fantastic buildings, including original "College Gothic" structures designed by the architect of Ellis Island, Edward L. Tilton. Also on site are a worship and performance hall, a contemporary academic center and library, residence halls, and a range of athletic facilities.

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.
