Basics of Faculty Advising


Columbia College Chicago believes that faculty-to-student advising is a critical component of the undergraduate educational experience. Through long-term and consistent contact with faculty members, students develop a collaborative relationship within which to explore and craft sound educational plans. Sustained faculty contact and personal attention offers each student a unique opportunity to achieve a profound understanding of the options and available resources and to ponder life goals and requirements and opportunities.  In this section, you’ll find information on faculty advising including our goals as an institution, FERPA, as well as tools to help you get started.
