What I’ve experienced at this college has been so common across friends that I’m confident many of you reading this will relate. I’ll outline these issues below with the hope that it sheds light on what to truly expect here. As an international student from the Philippines, I enrolled with the expectation of joining a diverse and inclusive community. Unfortunately, that wasn’t the reality. While the school is decent if your only goal is to complete a transfer degree, I wouldn’t recommend it if you’re looking for a broader cultural or academic experience. Despite being labeled an international college, It’s funny how the school shows off its “diversity” on social media, but in reality, they’re hiding what it’s really like. The diversity about 90% of students are from India. This overwhelming imbalance has deeply affected my experience, both academically and socially.nnAs a Business Administration major, I’ve had to do a lot of group work, presentations, and essays. In almost every group, communication was a major issue, many students weren’t able to speak clearly in English and often defaulted to Punjabi during discussions all the time, making me feel invisible, making me do 95% of the group projects, this affected my overall grade and wasn't happy. The college’s academic standards are relatively low. Professors are friendly and laid-back, but it often results in a lack of academic challenge. I've often had to deal with groups of Indian students crowding around staircases and bathrooms, blocking the way for others to pass, and at times the strong body odor in these areas made it very uncomfortable. I've also faced discrimination and unkind behavior, particularly from some Indian students.nnIf you're an international student reading this, I urge you find someplace else, otherwise you'll go though a lot of depression and despair.
Never step foot inside of this place. If I were given the options to study here or kms, I would kms. Only the high school is chill, Ms. Jamie is a very nice teacher.
My experience at Columbia College has been very disappointing. It feels like the focus is more on making money than supporting students, especially international students. Many students are failing courses without clear explanations or fair reasons, which creates unnecessary stress and depression. Some professors, particularly Gary Mangel, are not supportive and make the learning environment even more difficult. Overall, I would not recommend this college to anyone who values fairness and quality education.
I studied ESL was great good staff and I learned English quite fast.
This college just want money from students, teachers are not focusing on students hardwork, they are just focusing on failing all the studeNts . College main staff just sitting on stairs.
