If you’re getting this email, it’s because YOU are deserving of a warm welcome to Columbia College Chicago! Whether you’re an incoming freshman or a transfer student, Columbia is happy to share a campus with you. Our classes begin Tuesday, September 3rd, 2024 so you have this long weekend to explore campus, meet new people, and sight see in Chicago!
Columbia has lots to offer and aid you while you acclimate to the city. Check out our Student Groups to learn where your new best friends could be! From Cult Cinema to Quadball and back to the knitting club, Columbia has it all. Make sure to spend some time at Convocation THIS FRIDAY to get a full view of all the clubs you could be apart of!
And if you're just not ready to let go of summer and start school, no worries! Hang onto that last bit of August by exploring Chicago on your own (or with a couple of friends). Click here for our list of newcomer-friendly things to do in Chicago! (And if you wait until after you get your student ID, they'll be budget-friendly too!)
So from all of us here at Student Communications, thank you for choosing Columbia College Chicago and welcome to the greatest city ever!
