Welcome to Columbia International University! 

We are excited that God has led you to continue your training at Columbia International University (CIU). We trust you will find a community of believers interested in learning from you and a faculty eager to train you. We count it a special privilege to have you on our campus. These links and the International Student Handbook are designed to provide basic information about the United States, Columbia and CIU. It will answer many of your questions about immigration guidelines, academic standards, institutional requirements and cultural distinctives. It will probably not answer all of your questions, but it will help you to be more knowledgeable and more comfortable in this new setting.
