Mission
Columbia College Chicago's School of Graduate Studies offers master's degree programs in the arts, media, and the business of the arts. Students pursue advanced study in small, selective programs that are grounded in history and theory and shaped by the trends of contemporary practice. Under the guidance of award-winning faculty, students prepare to advance their careers, shape the future of their disciplines, and effect meaningful change in their communities.

We are accepting applications for our graduate programs for Fall 2023. Students who receive their bachelor's degree from Columbia are eligible for an alumni-specific scholarship award and additional support during the application process.

If you are interested in our Combined Degree BA|MA program, you will need to apply during the fall of your junior year. More information about the program and application is available at colum.edu/combined.

Mission
Work, study, and live in the heart of Hollywood. Columbia College Chicago's Semester in LA (SiLA) program can provide you with critical experience in the media and entertainment industry to carry into your career after graduation. You'll explore your career interests through internships and class experiences that are only available in the Los Angeles area.

Membership Benefits
SiLA is competitive and merit-based. Meeting the minimum requirements does not guarantee acceptance into the program. Your eligibility includes:

A minimum cumulative GPA of 3.0.

Completion of 75 credit hours before arrival at SiLA.

Significant progress in completing all core curriculum requirements.

No academic or disciplinary violations.

Application submission for only one term at a time.

Completion of the online application during the submission period. The application consists of:

Four short-answer essay questions.

Two written references: one from a faculty member and one from a professional such as an employer or volunteer supervisor.

A professional resume.

A 60-second video introducing yourself and your strengths.

All finalists will be invited to participate in a 10-minute personal interview.

Upon Acceptance

Acceptance to the program is conditional. There is a series of milestones you must meet before you can officially enroll. You will be given a list of these conditions as well as dates and procedures on how to satisfy them at orientation:

Academic self-audit with College Advising.

Meeting with Columbia's Career Center and registering with the college's employment database.

Proof of health insurance.

Attendance at orientation session(s).

Clearance of all restrictions to registration, including financial holds.

If you plan on graduating directly after the program, you will need to apply for graduation before leaving Chicago.
