FREQUENTLY-ASKED QUESTIONS

  • What is Tri-College University?
  • How do I get to Tri-College University?
  • Where is Tri-College University?

Tri-College University isn't a place – it's the name of the official partnership among the three higher education institutions in Fargo, N.D. and Moorhead, Minn. TCU is the bridge of cooperation that runs between Concordia College, Minnesota State University Moorhead, and North Dakota State University.

If you're enrolled on any one of those campuses, you can take advantage of the opportunities available through Tri-College University.

As long as you're here, it's worth your time to tour the Tri-College University web site and find out what we have to offer...

In the late 1960s Concordia College, Minnesota State University Moorhead, and North Dakota State University came together to form Tri-College University. The consortium was created to allow students from one university to attend classes at the other two with no additional tuition or fees. Through TCU, the three institutions offer a variety of programs, courses and services that no single school could offer, or offer as well, by itself. This web site explains opportunities currently available through Tri-College University.

 

TRI-COLLEGE UNIVERSITY IS YOUR GATEWAY

Tri-College University is your gateway to the three campuses in the Fargo, N.D.–Moorhead, Minn. metro area: Concordia College, Minnesota State University Moorhead, and North Dakota State University.

If you're enrolled at any of them, you can take classes on the other two at no extra charge (you pay the same tuition rate) and without going through additional admissions procedures (you're already a Tri-College student).

The course exchange is one of the resources available through Tri-College University. Other programs and services include: the TCU Educational Leadership Program; the TCU Nursing Consortium; the TCU World Seminar series; the TCU Library System; the Tri-College Career Fair; and the TCU International Student and Scholar Community Welcome Picnic.
