Workday Student

We're upgrading to Workday in 2026

Columbus State is in the process of upgrading from our old student information system (Self-Service / CougarWeb) to a new system: Workday! In the new system, students will be able to register for courses, manage financial aid, update contact information, and so much more – all in a one-stop shop.
