Columbia College serves nearly 25,000 students each year at its Day Campus, Evening Campus, 31 Nationwide Campuses, Online Campus and Graduate Studies Program. Founded in 1851 as Christian Female College, it was the first women’s college west of the Mississippi River to be chartered by a state legislature. In 1970, the college was renamed Columbia College when it opened its doors to both women and men.
