CIU is a christian school with a lots of opportunities. It challenge students to become better people. their focus is to share God's Word to those who have never heard of it.

CIU is a remarkable university where the love of God is evident and Biblical teaching is everywhere. The atmosphere amongst students, and faculty as well, is one of support, encouragement and Christ-like love. The excellent academics encourage personal growth both spiritually and intellectually.

CIU is an incredible school especially for those truly interested in following God's calling on their lives as Christians. The professors truly do care about the students actually learning the material and growing in their walks with Christ. It is a great environment and while it prepares you for Christian ministry whether international or in the states, there are also amazing opportunities to get involved in around Columbia itself.

CIU has the greatest campus life and community of any college I've ever heard of. The people here (both students and faculty/staff) are loving, awesome individuals. CIU is a great place to be.

I have now been attending Columbia International University since August 2010 and I realize it was and is the best decision I could have ever made knowing that my relationship with Christ Jesus would grow stronger, I joined the CIU family because of the Lord's leading; the school's reputation and the family-oriented atmosphere I felt in 2009 when my decision was finally made to attend. I am truly grateful for every person I come in contact with because it brings me closer to the LORD in prayer; not only in prayer, but it has given me an even greater understanding of His Word and a closer relationship.

I transferred to CIU in January 2011 after attending Midlands Technical College for 2 1/2 years. I thoroughly enjoy my classes at CIU as well my major and the wonderful faculty and professors. I love learning so much more about the Bible and also acquiring hands on experiences in my youth ministry classes.

Columbia International University feels like home. They combine Christianity and education in order to provide an intellectual and spiritual view on classes. The staff and faculty truly care and will become like family!

CIU is a small, close-knit community (about 600 students) committed to preparing students to serve God. The professors care about students and do a good job teaching. CIU will be entering intercollegiate athletics for the first time in 2013.

CIU is a great school and I am particularly pleased with the program I have chosen. The professors are very nice and diligent teachers, serving the students well. Another great thing about CIU is the amount of work available to students on campus!

This college is great for anyone who strongly desires to learn and to become a better person, focusing on God and carefully studying the Bible. The faculty and students are all passionate about God. The professors work hard at encouraging the students to seek to follow God and to learn about both the Bible and practical life lessons.
