Housing services

Learning to live cooperatively is an integral part of Concordia University’s mission to “prepare students for thoughtful and informed living”. Living with others, learning to share space, and community integration are a part of the campus community and we want students to have those learning experiences in all areas of collegiate life.

Concordia is committed to providing equal access for students with disabilities that substantially limit a major life activity and significantly affect living arrangements. Students are responsible to provide this information to Student Accessibility Services (SAS) and Residence Life by stated deadlines.

If you’ve paid a visit to the CSP Library in the past several months, you’ve likely noticed a few changes to its space.
