Columbia College

"Columbia college is a horrible place to attend. Half the classes they only offer online with little to no help from an instructor. They can’t even do basic math when it comes to student loans and figuring out if you have enough funds for classes that semester. Then they will charge you for the classes with out giving you the option to drop them and come back when you have the funds to attend class. Then on top of that they will try and charge you collection costs that you did not occur."

"I am biased because I work here so if that doesn't work for you, just ignore :) but it is a great small college campus in the heart of College Town USA. Come check it out!!"

"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'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."

"I had a terrible experience at this school. I would highly recommend not going to this college. They do not care about how you as the student does. All they care a bout is your money. You will NEVER hear back from any of your online teachers. I tried emailing a teaching with a question 3 times and not once did I hear back from the teacher. If for any reason you need to withdrawal they will not except it. Even if you withdraw a day or 2 after the deadline, they will make you pay every cent, even if you had good reason for the withdrawal. If you want to attend a college that cares about your needs and your success I would highly recommend choosing a different college because the only thing they care about at this college is getting your money. I'm reading all of these other reviews and I had similar experiences. The service is absolutely terrible! I will never return here and never recommend this pathetic college to anyone."
