See the campus for yourself.
Admitted Student Days
We’d like to show you why we call Columbia home, so you can start calling it home, too. At Admitted Student Day, you'll get an in-depth, faculty-led experience, visit one of our residence centers, discuss financial planning and scholarships, and learn all about our resources that will help you launch your creative career! Space is limited, so admitted students should sign up right away.
Campus Tours
Our student-led Campus Tours are fun, guided experiences that let you see firsthand all the greatness ³Ô¹Ï±¬ÁÏ has to offer—from our color-splashed South Loop campus to our bubbling student community. During these 90-minute tours, you’ll have a chance to check out the spaces and facilities for your program of interest. All tours include classrooms and collaboration spaces, a residence center, the Student Center, and more. Campus tours are offered Monday through Friday, and occasional Saturdays.
