Columbia College - Chicago, IL (Downtown Chicago Loop area)

This is "The other Columbia" (not Columbia University in New York). This is still pretty "mainstream." This is a very artsy type college with some unusual college programs. Founded in 1890, Columbia has approximately 12,000 students. Great Radio, TV, Film & Video programs among others like Dance Movement Therapy and Counseling, Game Design, and Fashion Business. There are also more traditional liberal arts and sciences offerings, but the students here can be highly untraditional.

Everything is taught from an arts perspective here. Creativity is rewarded. If you don't like to write, you may be able to contract with your professor to do an art project instead. It's in downtown Chicago, so it has a very urban feel. Students are surrounded by Chicago's skyscrapers. The campus includes the city. Columbia College's main building is right in the heart of it.
