Our teachers, residence and support staff all work collaboratively and share the same positive attitude in creating an environment for students to be successful in their studies and beyond.

We are incredibly proud of how well our Total Care approach has worked for more than 40 years.

Choosing Columbia International College will be the start of providing your children the best opportunities for their future.

We are committed to developing and educating the whole student. In addition to ensuring long term academic success, we believe it is just as important to focus on positively building their strong values and character. We will help them to become globallyminded responsible citizens who give back to their communities and make a difference for future generations.
