The 2019/2020 school year is underway and the Columbia International University campus is full of excitement — and just plain full! Enrollment is up to 1,574 students, an increase over the previous year’s count of 1,253. This school year’s figure includes 752 undergraduate students and 822 graduate students.

During Welcome Week, some new students and their parents indicated they chose CIU because of CIU’s new and upgraded facilities. Two important projects were completed over the summer; The $20 million William H. Jones Global Business & IT Center, and a $4 million renovation of the Dining Hall.
