Preferred Pathway

The Preferred Pathway at Columbus State gives you many options to start your bachelor’s degree debt-free.  Our low tuition and commitment to keeping education affordable means Preferred Pathway students graduate ready to start planning for the future – not paying off the past. 

Transfer agreements with our nine Preferred Pathway partners allow you to complete up to the first two years of requirements in many different majors and programs of study at Columbus State, then transfer seamlessly to complete your bachelor’s degree.  Students must complete admissions applications and submit all requested documentation (transcripts, test scores, and/or other items) for their chosen partner by the college or university's stated deadline to ensure their transfer.
