Ready to join a community based on Christian values in beautiful Orange County, California? Concordia University Irvine could be a great fit for you!
GET INVOLVED
Once you arrive on campus, the Moon International Center will be your home away from home. The Moon International Center welcomes students from around the world to Concordia University's beautiful campus in Irvine, California. The staff are committed to the academic success and social development of international students and highly value the unique perspective students from around the world bring to the Concordia community. International students quickly become part of the Concordia family as they interact with American students in the residence halls, cafeteria, classrooms, and during informal student activities. Additionally, American students and professors appreciate and are eager to learn from international students as they share aspects of their own unique cultures.
HOUSING
Your ISEP benefits at Concordia University Irvine include housing in a shared apartment or suite on campus. Rooms are furnished with a bed, desk, chair, and dresser for each student. Check out our on-campus housing here: https://www.cui.edu/admissions/undergraduate/living-on-campus/housing
Please note that although ISEP students can mention their housing preferences, they do not select where they stay. Housing will be assigned by the office of Residence Life based on availability and class seniority.
Students may stay on campus during some vacation periods. Students must move out on the last day of benefits and cannot stay during the winter break. They will be charged a housing fee if they stay past the last day of benefits.
MEALS
As part of your ISEP benefits, you will receive a Concordia University 19-week Meal Plan. The Meal Plan benefits are loaded on your Concordia Student ID and can be used in the cafeteria, located in the Student Union which is open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Students can load funds on their student account in the MyCUI app or dashboard to use at Eagle's Landing, the on-campus cafe. Both locations provide a mix of healthy options and can accommodate vegan/vegetarian and gluten-free diets.
