If you've been admitted to Concordia University Texas, congratulations! The next phase in the enrollment process is to secure your spot at CTX with a deposit. The non-refundable deposit for on-campus students is $275, and it's $150 for commuting students.

Here are five reasons you should commit to Concordia University Texas today.

  1. Reserve Your Seat

Your deposit ensures that you have a seat at Concordia University Texas. It indicates your commitment to attend the University.

Additionally, if you're a freshman, it serves as your housing application. Note that all students are required to live on campus during their freshman year.

  1. Register for Orientation

To register for mandatory orientation, you first have to make your deposit.

The orientation for all first-year undergraduate students and their parents is called Embark! The two-day orientation introduces you and your parents to life at CTX. You will learn more about the University and get your questions answered.

The Fall 2020 Embark! Orientation is on August 20-21, 2020.

En Route is the one-day orientation for undergraduate transfer students. During one of two sessions, you will learn more about life as a transfer student at Concordia.

The Fall 2020 En Route sessions are on August 12 and August 13, 2020.

  1. Get Registered for Classes

Once you make your deposit, Concordia's student academic planners will register you for your first semester of courses before orientation. You will meet virtually with your academic planner, who will walk you through your schedule and answer any questions you have.
