Columbia State is offering in-person drop-in days for students who need assistance with fall enrollment.

Students can stop by any Columbia State campus on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays between 7:45 a.m. and 4:15 p.m. If evening services are needed, students can drop by the Columbia Campus Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays between 7:45 a.m. and 6 p.m.

No appointments are necessary for students who need in-person assistance with admissions, financial aid or help scheduling an advising appointment.

Virtual advising via Zoom is also offered every Wednesday between 11:30 a.m. – 1:30 p.m. or 3 – 5 p.m. https://columbiastate.zoom.us/my/columbiastateadvising. No appointment is necessary, however, students will be assisted on a first-come, first-served basis.

Students must apply for fall admission by August 6. In an effort to transition safely back to campus, the college is increasing the number of in-person classes offered this fall. Fall registration closes August 17. Fall course schedules will include a mixture of instructional formats: in-person, live-streaming Desktop Video Conferencing (DVC) via Zoom, online, and hybrid. 

Upon acceptance, new students must schedule an appointment with an adviser to register for classes and attend an online orientation session. Columbia State advisers are ready to help students with the registration process, answer questions and create a plan based on their individual needs.

Applications are currently accepted online at www.ColumbiaState.edu/Apply.
