Based in the liberal arts, Concordia University Chicago (CUC) provides a Christian education in the Lutheran tradition. Founded in 1864 as Addison Lutheran Teachers Seminary, today CUC is a comprehensive university with more than 6,000 full-time students enrolled in baccalaureate, master's and doctoral study. Affiliated with the Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod (LCMS), the University is one of eight colleges and universities that are part of a nationwide Concordia University System.

As a private, liberal-arts-based university, CUC’s vibrant, engaging academic community is designed to help students reach their full potential. CUC cultivates within each of its students the ideals of a Christian life with Jesus Christ at the center of all they do. Within that framework, students seek greater meaning in their vocations as they pursue ways to serve the greater good and mature in their faith.

CUC’s faithfulness to its Lutheran identity, their commitment to vocation, and their dedication to providing a transformational education within the context of a variety of high-quality academic programs, along with CUC’s proximity to Chicago, all combine to make CUC an ideal destination for students locally, nationally and from around the world.

At Concordia University Chicago’s Campus Ministry students lead a wide range of events, including speakers, retreats, Bible studies, concerts, fellowship events and other spiritual activities. This group also supports the Fellowship of Christian Athletes and the Prayer and Praise teams.
