TWO CAMPUSES
The best of both worlds
Concordia’s two campuses offer students a next-generation university experience. From the downtown buzz of the Sir George Williams Campus to the relaxed green spaces of Loyola Campus, you’ll find state-of-the-art facilities, renovated study and library spaces, a leafy campus quad and tons of great places to eat!
ONE UNIVERSITY, TWO UNIQUE CAMPUS EXPERIENCES
Sir George Williams Campus
The Sir George Williams (SGW) Campus is located in the bustling core of downtown Montreal. The campus is made up of nearly 40 buildings, from century-old row houses to steel and glass high-rises. With a metro station (Guy-Concordia) and a bike path at the centre, SGW is in the middle of the action with endless cafes, restaurants and shops to explore between classes. Here’s your urban university experience!
SGW is also home to many student services and facilities, including the Webster Library, our fitness centre Le Gym, the Student Success Centre and the International Students Office.
Loyola Campus
The Loyola Campus is our beautiful leafy oasis in the city, located 6.5 km west of downtown. Loyola blends cutting-edge facilities with turn-of-the-century buildings in the beautiful neighbourhood of Notre-Dame-de-Grâce. Home to a leafy campus quad and lots of green space, Loyola has that classic university campus feel.
At Loyola you’ll also find our Recreation and Athletics Complex, home to our varsity sports teams (Go Stingers!), the new $62 million state-of-the art Applied Science Hub and the Oscar Peterson Concert Hall.

CAMPUS HISTORY
Our campuses take their names from Loyola College and Sir George Williams University, two educational institutions with deep roots in Montreal. On August 24, 1974, they merged to form Concordia University – and the rest is history!
