University description (as per official university website)
Columbia College, a women's college related to the United Methodist Church, educates students in the liberal arts tradition. The College provides educational opportunities that develop students' capacity for critical thought and expression, life-long learning, acceptance of personal responsibility, and commitment to service and social justice. In furtherance of its mission, the College is responsive to the needs of students, the communities to which it belongs, and the greater global society.
Columbia College encompasses the Women's College established in 1854 and the Evening College and Graduate School serving women and men. Columbia College is noted for faculty who foster academic excellence through collaborative teaching and learning; a vital learning community in which character, ethics, and values are cultivated; the study of leadership enhanced by opportunities for practical application; programs that capitalize on advances in technology; and learning environments that extend beyond the classroom.
The Office of Financial Aid is dedicated to helping students and their families make attending Columbia College affordable. More than 85 percent of their students do not pay full tuition, because they receive financial assistance in the form of scholarships, grants, loans and/or student work.
Columbia College's undergraduate curriculum emphasizes the development of skills in critical thinking, problem solving, written and oral communication, and the use of technology. The College currently offers 35 undergraduate majors in a wide array of challenging fields. For students who want to design their own major, the College also offers a contractual studies program.
