New Students & Orientation
As a new Columbus State student, we want to make sure you have everything you need for a successful transition into college. Once you've applied, New Student Programs can help you get ready for your first semester.
Next Steps for New Students
If you've already applied for admission and completed placement, your next step is to attend a New Student Program by completing either New Student Orientation or the two-step New Student Workshop. During these events, you'll register for your first classes, discuss financial aid options, learn about campus resources, and get ready to succeed in college.

Navigators: Your Guides to Columbus State
As you get started on your journey, a Navigator can help guide you along the way. See the table below to identify your specific Navigator based on your intended program of study. If you are interested in completing courses at Delaware or a Regional Learning Center, you can find your Navigator for that location as well.
If you plan to complete courses at the Delaware Campus, please find your Advisor by choosing Student Services on the Delaware Campus website.
If you plan to complete courses at a Regional Learning Center, please find your Advisor by choosing your location on the Locations website.
If you are a student at another college and want to take courses at Columbus State with the intention of transferring them back to your own college, you are what we call a “transient student”. We welcome you to Columbus State and look forward to helping you on your educational journey!
