Salary and Debt by Major at Columbia College
We calculated a Salary Score for each of Columbia College's programs by comparing program-specific median alumni earnings to median alumni earnings for the same program across all schools that provide this data. This way, students can compare the relative salary strength of a specific major at Columbia College to the same major at other schools. A school's overall score by level is based on the school's by-program performance weighted by student enrollment in each program. Data is sourced from the December 2020 release of the U.S. Department of Education's College Scorecard and reflects median alumni debt upon graduation and median alumni earnings in the year after graduation for students who received federal financial aid. Debt and salary numbers are shown rounded to the nearest $10.

I enrolled based on the recommendation of a friend. The instructors were ok, but the study does not prepare you for the career field. It does not offer any industry certifications, and does not provide you with the skill set need for a job. The courses do not even prepare you to earn industry certifications.
