Additionally, I took a Sport Nutrition class and ended up with a 815.5/840, which ends up being 97.083%. Per the instructors syllabus, anything above 97% is an A and I looked at my transcript and it showed up as an A-. I emailed the instructor and the enrollment coordinator and neither one has responded yet.

The Chicago area is so fortunate to have this excellent...

Although I never attended this school, I've been on Concordia's campus quite a bit - from having my high school track & field practices held here to utilizing the library's resources if I needed to while attending school down the street, I've always found Concordia to be a close-knit, safe, and good looking campus with very friendly people all around. To say that it feels like a community-within-a-community here is no exaggeration, and at times I wished that I had gone here...
