The Columbia International University Academic Catalog serves as the official reference for academic programs, course descriptions, degree requirements, and institutional policies. Covering undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral level offerings across CIU’s colleges.
CIU’s catalog is designed to empower students to plan effectively toward graduation. Drawing on its accreditation from SACSCOC and ABHE as well as program-specific accreditation, the catalog ensures that every course and program aligns with academic standards and institutional values.
Students are encouraged to reference the catalog regularly to:
- Confirm program requirements and electives
- Understand prerequisites, credit hour expectations, and course sequencing
- Review academic policies, grading criteria, and degree completion pathways
The catalog stands as a key planning tool—whether on campus in Columbia, SC, or online—helping students navigate their academic journey with intentionality and clarity.
The catalog is maintained by the Office of the Registrar. For questions, comments, or to report an issue with this site, please contact us at Registrar@ciu.edu.
The information in this catalog is provided for informational purposes and does not establish a binding contract between Columbia International University and a student. While we strive to keep the catalog accurate and up to date, the University reserves the right to make changes at any time—this includes adjustments to academic programs, policies, course offerings, and graduation requirements. Any changes made are guided by the University’s commitment to academic quality and are subject to review by accrediting and governmental agencies. Students are responsible for staying informed of current requirements for their degree programs and should consult regularly with academic advisors to ensure timely progress toward graduation.
