Franklin Portal

Franklin Pathway Portal

Enrolling at Columbus State Community College was a smart investment in your future. Keep moving in the right direction with the Franklin University Pathway Portal. As you progress toward your CSCC associate degree, the Pathway Portal shows you how each class you complete also puts a bachelor’s degree from Franklin University within reach.

The Pathway Portal is a key benefit of Franklin's 3+1 Advantage because it keeps you up to date on exactly how the credits you earn at Columbus State transfer to Franklin University. You’ll see how your completed courses fit in your bachelor’s program of choice alongside the other programs Franklin offers. This program-to-program comparison ensures that you maximize your transfer credit and save time and money toward your bachelor’s degree.

Building on the seamless transfer agreements between Columbus State and Franklin, the Pathway Portal provides:

  • Best fit Franklin majors based on your completed coursework at CSCC
  • Course suggestions to simultaneously satisfy associate and bachelor’s degree requirements
  • Streamlined application to Franklin to finish the remainder of your bachelor’s degree credits
  • A special Pathway Portal tuition rate of $298 per credit hour and free books for Columbus State grads who enroll at Franklin.

Portal Opt-In

Before you can access Franklin University's Pathway Portal, you must complete the "Intent to Participate in the Franklin Pathway Portal" form. Completion of this form allows CSCC to share your profile and academic information.

We are currently transitioning to a new Workday process for students to complete the Intent to Participate in the Franklin Pathway Portal form. During this transition, the form is temporarily unavailable and cannot be submitted.

Once the transition is complete, this page will include a link to the new form, which will be housed in our new student platform.

We appreciate your patience as we make this improvement to better serve students and streamline the process. Please check back on or after July 20, 2026 for instructions on how to opt in to the Franklin Pathway Portal.
