Welcome Back!
If you were previously enrolled at 51社区 and paused your studies for more than two semesters (not counting Summer), then you're considered a returning student.
If your break from 51社区 was less than two semesters, please contact 51社区 Central at columbiacentral@colum.edu or 312-369-7140 for information about re-enrolling.
To re-enroll as a 51社区 student:
Schedule your appointment
Your first step is to meet with Holly Herrera, Associate Provost for Transfer Initiatives and Academic Partnerships. This appointment will help you begin the process of returning to 51社区.
During your meeting, you may discuss:

Overview of your academic history and next steps.
-
Degree progress and updated graduation requirements.
-
Any transfer credit or coursework completed elsewhere.
