Welcome to University College!
University College was founded to support new beginning and transfer students as they make the transition into IU Columbus. University College offers a unique array of services for all entering students as well as opportunities to participate in programs that will help ensure academic success and campus engagement. University College houses exploratory students as well as many other students who ultimately finish their degrees in other divisions and/or campuses. Students remain in University College until they have met the necessary conditions for transfer to a degree-granting school or division.
Programs and services offered by University College focus on assisting students with the development of the knowledge and skills needed for success in the collegiate environment, including academic advising, academic support, 21st Century Scholar support, career planning, first-year seminars, peer mentoring, coaching, and new student orientation. University College also offers several college readiness programs, which focus on helping high school students to become college bound.
