The worst institute. I have wasted my money and time . Racist staff and unhelpful student services members.nI have already requested an complaint against this institute who just need students money nothing else.
Columbia College is an amazing institution to start your academic journey in Vancouver. If you’re considering to transfer to universities such as SFU or UBC, you definitely should check out their University Transfer Program. They have great academic advisors, professors and Math and English tutors. It also gives different types of courses in lots of fields like computer science, business, social science and science. I took all my elective courses at Columbia College and transferred them to my university. Classes have small number of students, so professors can assist students individually. I really had a great experience there! I highly recommend Columbia College!
Amazing place to start your journey in canada. Student services are helpful and reply on time with clarity. Political science department instructors are best here. I completed my studies 8 months ago but still wanna join this college again.
I had an amazing experience in regard to taking social sciences courses; and i was a student from 2018-2020. i have met great professors that are hard to forget. CC is a great place as a college where is not too expensive and beside of that you meet inspiring instructors. The things that bothered me was first, lesser diversity that sometimes that made me feeling isolated and left-out.nSecond, most English instructors at CC make a bad impression of teaching courses at this college, most of them are so toxic and that might trigger a bad feeling thought into a student mind that they might not be able to pass courses; it is highly praiseworthy to state that English instructors are doing their bests in order to guide students to not plagiarize, but they are doing it in a negative way that might not even guide a student to avoid plagarism!nThird, staff need to be more polite with the students and any people who come by. In the year 2019, when i went there to pay my tuition fees some people were so rude; hopefully, they have made better changes.nnLast but not least, CC needed to better appreciate their students who won awards with providing good-shaped award certificates or even mailing them to their homes in the year “2020”. It was missing these qualities.
How to make your decision about entering CCnnIf you prioritize:nn- diversity, vibrant campus life, strong college spiritnDO NOT enter CC.nnIf you prioritize:nn- a viable university transfer pathway/ getting a PGWP in 2 years,nCC might be for you.nnOther factors that you wanna consider, but is highly situational:nn- Quality of education -- depends mostly on the instructors you choose because they decide how challenging the course will be and the kind of stuff they wanna teach. Like every school, some professors are amazing and others are not. The professors I adore are not necessarily the ones others adore. So, it depends on what you are looking for.nn- Administrative service -- depends on the individual staff you roll with. Most important persons you will need to consider are your counsellor and career advisor. There are a handful of counsellors in the college. Some are amazing and others are not. Personally, I vouch for the career advisor, Linus. Overall, I'd say that the Students Services department needs to up its game on serving their students.nnMore personal take:nMy CC experience was awesome because it was a great fit for ME. My priority was having awesome professors who discussed stuff I wanted to discuss about. The non-academic staff and quality of school facilities or extracurricular events were of little concern to me. I really enjoyed the professors in the philosophy, psychology, anthropology and political science department. But, I've been biased towards these disciplines from the get-go. Having said that, the college has a lot of improvements to make. The professors I had might have been great but I doubt that the institution itself holds a student-first philosophy.
