The College is over priced for film and video school.
After 3 plus year you will be in heavily in dept.
On top of that what they called opportunity is basically
work for nothing "sometime they feed you with a meal" But other times you will be approach by people and companies
to be ask to work for them for free and not get paid. "sometime no food!" what a rip off. Just because your a student there doesn't mean that you can't be paid!
On top of that if you completed a class and need equipment to rent out ( they will not rent out equipment after you taken the class. Must be during the class. ) This is another $$$ you have cough up. | Useful Schoolwork: A+, University Resource Use: F |  | | |

| Quite Bright | Columbia College is one of the best. It is not hard to get in to the school but if you are not talented you are out. It is simple as that. People are friendly and the location is the best in Chicago. I really recommend Columbia College to everyone especially that soon it will be hard to get in. I think it is the best school for Fiction Writing now in the U.S. Sometimes i feel like i am spoiled in this school because it is a private school and pretty much most of the students are very wealthy. | Education Quality: A+, Scholastic Success: C |  | | |

I am a television production major here at Columbia College, and I think it's absolutely wonderful. Some of my general education classes aren't what I would like them to be, but my department is amazing.
As a television student, they really get your hands on real-world equipment right away and they make it a point to let you know how it is the work in the field.
The film department is rather large, so some of those students change their majors to television and enjoy the many resources and perks to being in a smaller department. The campus is very non-traditional, but that's one of the reasons why I like it. It's Chicago! What's not to love. There's plenty to do especially if you enjoy art and museums. | Education Quality: A+, Friendliness: C+ |  | | |

I've so far been here for a semester and a half and can see where negative and where positive comments come from. It's ridiculously easy to get into, it's really disorganized and i've come to notice alot of people who are there to be a part of the "art scene". I'm part of the small illustration program but i've heard with the huge size of the film program it's incredibly difficult to be noticed. most of the teachers i've had so far have been pretty good. easy to talk to, pretty knowledgeable in their field. only some of the classes have actually provided challenges.
the upside to the school is something they push alot which is networking. the school itself might not help you get that far but knowing alot of people in various fields just might. overall, it's really a school that you have to put alot of yourself into to get a decent amount out of. you can slack and skim by alright, or you work hard and get a decent education out of the place. oh, and as for the social scene, i've met a decent amount of friendly people here. plus it is smack dab in downtown chicago so it's pretty easy to find fun stuff to do. | Surrounding City: A+, Individual Value: C- |  | | |
