Concordia College-Selma has been selected as a Tom Joyner Foundation School for the Month of September 2005.

Because of the ongoing need to provide substantial financial aid for our students, The Tom Joyner Foundation fund-raising effort, along with current activities, will prove to be invaluable. It will help our students successfully address the financial challenge of attending college."
