When you look at our world and our culture, you see wrongs to be righted, aesthetics to be elevated, and industries to be started and disrupted. Columbia College Chicago empowers you to shape what’s next through creative practice.
Columbia’s South Loop home is an eclectic, art-splashed neighborhood along the Cultural Mile in downtown Chicago. Here, we offer immersive, hands-on learning from your first moments on campus, with more than 100 undergraduate and graduate degree programs in business and management, communication and writing, digital and media arts, music and sound, performing arts, and visual arts.
