all in all
all together
in closing
in short
given these facts
to conclude
summing up
overall
in summary
to summarize
in retrospect
in the end
You dont always have to use these words though. If you already wrote your introduction paragraph just change the words a little and make this your conclusion. Make sure it is a strong ending as if to enforce the point you are trying to make!!
Good Luck and Have Fun jk

Better to not write any phrases along those lines. Just state the conclusion, without saying "in conclusion".

Don't insult your reader! To use these words is to imply that your reader is too dumb to realize that you are almost done.
Your conclusion paragraph should begin with a restatement of your thesis (which should have been your last sentence in the opening paragraph - telling exactly what your paper is about).
Remember what Nike taught us all in its commercials - JUST DO IT.

actually, i was taught in school that you should never say anything to the effect of 'in conclusion' or 'therefore' if you are using this to write the concluding paragraph of a paper. you should just restate your thesis statement and basically reiterate your introduction.
but to answer your question: 'in summary', 'therefore', 'hence'

With these things in mind, we can now...
Having come to the end of our discussion,
We now realize that...

Now that that's over... (lol. Just kidding!)

you really shouldnt state that you are concluding your paper, but just conclude it. If you just conclude it well enough they will understand it is a conclusion.

To conclude, I wish to summarize the points I have made here today.

in summary,
but there's nothing wrong with using "in conclusion"
