Concordia College

Concordia College-New York is a four-year private liberal arts institution in Bronxville, New York. It is part of the Concordia University System and was founded in 1881. The original campus was in Manhattan. However, the school eventually outgrew its space and moved the campus to Unionville before settling into its current home in Bronxville. The village of Bronxville is a small community of 7,000 residents and only covers one-square-mile of land. However, it is just 25 minutes from Manhattan, providing students with quick access to New York City. The school offers bachelor’s degrees in several fields, including nursing.  

The school offers two paths for obtaining a Bachelor of Science in Nursing. Students may apply to the traditional BSN program or the accelerated BSN program. The accelerated program is for students that already have a bachelor’s degree in a non-nursing major. Both programs were accredited by the CCNE in 2015. The class sizes are small, which allows students to work closely with their instructors. Students learn their nursing skills in the advanced simulation laboratory. The school also has partnerships with hospitals, nursing facilities, nursing homes, and mental health facilities in Westchester County and the New York metropolitan area. These partnerships provide students with hands-on practice with real patients.
