Columbia College in Columbia

I received my B.S. Business Administration, Finance degree from Columbia College. I found taking a combination of in seat and online 8 week courses both challenging and rewarding. I have always found and appreciated the professors of my courses having real world knowledge and experience shared in the courses. In particular, the business simulation capstone at the Crystal Lake, IL campus is impressive given it is utilized in many MBA programs. I have always found the administrative and counseling support at both the local and Columbia locations as being outstanding. I had attempted to finish my degree at various institutions and ultimately found Columbia College as the right program for me as a working professional. I would highly recommend Columbia College to anyone considering attending. The key to academic success is personal commitment and investment in ourselves.

I wish I could give this school no stars... it doesn’t derserve it!!! Biggest waste of my time.... Hence Forth, I will read reviews and take them seriously. If I were to write it all, it will turn into a novel...do not waste your time!!! It will be better to step on several dog pop than to attend this school.Firstly, this is the first time I am writing any kind of review on a product of service. The experience is beyond horrible. This school do not cater to students needs one bit. The resources they use like proctorU has horrible reviews, which I have found to be true and worst. I wonder why they put their students through that with no care in the world. They professors are not supportive, of anything they are the most discouraging set of educators I ever encountered. It’s a shame!!! To cut this long story short, I don’t recommend this school to my worst enemy.

Signed up for a summer math class to bridge the gap between two semesters at MU. First off, the quality of the class was a joke. We were told to print off notes before class and they were scribbles from the teacher. On several occasions the instructor would mess up something and confuse most of the students and if you didn't know something that was being taught and the teacher would say to youtube it on your own time. I tried to drop the class but it was too late, so I got stuck with paying for it. Seems like the cost is similar to MU, don't waste your time here.

Im loving my time at CCIS on evenings. The 8 week schedule is a bit clunky because there is no break in the middle of the 8 week semesters, but going back to school with a family this has made things way easier. Especially with the small classes 15-30 people. Mike Miracle teaches the programming classes and he is great!

I'm currently enrolled at CC. This is the best college I've ever been to. The faculty is understanding and very helpful. They actually care about your education. My advisor was by far the best. She helped me through some very tough decisions and helped me to make the best financial decisions. I visited the enrollment center 3 times to change classes due to my own reasons and all three times they were understanding, helpful, and encouraging. I also went to the enrollment services about my financial status multiple times throughout the year and they were always there to help. They showed me my financial plan exactly including scholarships, loans, and grants. They explained everything to where I could understand and even printed me copies of my plan. BEST COLLEGE containing the VERY BEST PEOPLE! The other reviews that had one star and rude comments, it's because of their stupidity and closed mindedness. This college is truly amazing and makes you feel apart of the community, on or off campus.
