Columbus State University in Columbus, GA.
A reddit for anyone going to Columbus State University.

The website calendar says the 23rd of November, which is in 20 days. But I’ve been told by people there’s only 15 days left for break. Any ideas?
I graduated with a GED & looking at the website it requires a 2.5 HS GPA. Would I still be able to get into the college with just a GED? I graduated with my GED 4 years ago.
I applied not to long ago and i got this message on friday. Does this mean I was accepted? I didnt receive an email just this. This phone number does belong to the columbus state admissions office but should i receive an email or something?
I wanted to know who else is taking a MIS degree online from Columbus State University? I hope it’s 100% online because I just went semi-stressing and arguing with multiple people from eCore advisors and my own CSU advisor about how I signed up for a class that had weird wording on showing a time for in person classes but the other half of the class is online.
Confusing right?
Well, come to find out, the eCore registration for Microeconomics and macroeconomics opens November and I should be able to register then.
So, has anyone has a hard time with registering for classes or poor experiences? I live in Lagrange and have a not so reliable vehicle to drive 85 miles collectively a day or something just to atttend and class for a degree that is labeled “ONLINE 100%”
Please give any insight of yourself that could be helpful 🫡 I do not want to have to sue the school for misguiding students into wrongful advertising of an “online degree” when (or if) that’s never been the case at all.
FYI here’s the degree: https://www.columbusstate.edu/academics/degrees-and-programs/bba-management-information-systems.php
I am on the cybersecurity concentration and also learning to use TryHackMe alongside HackTheBox when I have the chance. I consider at some point looking into google certification(s). I don’t know if they carry CompTIA+ or Sec+ for example.
So my question is, since next fall 2025 I will be hopefully taking my first 3000 class, (3115: principles of information systems), who here has graduated with this degree? Have you loved the learning how to use the degree to work in IT or other tech roles? Why did you choose this degree? Tell me all about any experiences.
I will be graduating in a few years with a degree in “management information systems - cybersecurity management “
What I want to know is are there anyone in my current position of job hunting as your going to school for a network administrator job, systems administrator, networking based, security analyst, help desk etc.
I am feeling discouraged at the moment because I am 24 years old and a junior from reading some Redditors saying how “MIS is useless at teaching networking job skills or whatever” and this is what I have swapped to from Information Technology. I am currently taking accounting and will eventually take my “principles of information systems” course among others. I did not like that side of heavily reliant on Java programming which is why I switched (python is at the moment my top favorite). I enjoy these types of classes now more.
I want to learn about networking, LAN’s, WAN’s, hacking, cyber defense measures and more.
My question: since the concentration is cybersecurity, can I also utilize cybersecurity or technology based electives to equip myself with any knowledge I can obtain? Please give me any advice for earning an opportunity around the Lagrange city area because I have not had any great success on finding a company that has any help desk roles or entry level of any kinds. Is my degree useless…? Did I fuck something up :(
Please give me any opinions from yourselves and where you are in life.
I’m looking to partner/hire a software engineer to help on a project. Can someone point me in the right direction?
Hey there all; I am seeking a Mamagememt Information Systems degree with CyberSecurity concentration. I have 57 credits and plan on doing 9 credits next semester with my part time job of 24 hours a week (I get home at 3pm daily except Fridays through Sundays not including holidays)
What I want to know is since I’m close to being a junior, I am getting close to taking a 3000 level course. Here’s the degree for reference since I can’t remember a 3000 level name: https://catalog.columbusstate.edu/academic-units/business/marketing-management/management-information-systems-bba-cybersecurity/#programofstudytext
I want to know other people’s experiences in the difficulty in transitioning from 1000, 2000, to 3000 and even 4000 level courses. I am nervous and have been attempting to find tiktok videos of people explaining but I can’t find anything.
Do I have anything to worry about? Is 3000 and 4000 really that much difficulty in assignments, studying, workload? I intend to work hard and not screw around just as I have been.
Just checking to see if anyone has received their refund? Or at least got an email about it yet!
They sent a hella lot of dip tho so imma be fed for a while
Hi guys. I work part time 24 hours a week and it’s pays $12 an hour which is barely enough but it’s manageable for minor gas bills and groceries for myself and my girlfriend.
For the record, the job is just a computer job of simple data entry and not hard but office politics is where it makes me stressed some days.
My girlfriend and I attend CSU and we have enjoyed it (I’m earning my Information systems degree and she’s going for earth and space science degree)
Question: What I want help or any advice at all from people’s experience is how do you manage your study’s time, completing assignments for this degree and making sure you’re passing without disrupting financial aid?
I am asking hopefully other people that are in the same degree but anyone with advice please add your thoughts as well since it could help someone.
I received federal Pell grant first time this fall semester 2024 and I want to use it to the best utilization. Is 3 classes that are 3 credit hours each too much for me in your opinion? I am at 57 credit hours out of 120 or 123, I can’t remember. I want to not lose federal Pell grant and make sure I am not overwhelming myself by creating stress that leads to exhaustion and failure because something backfired.
I got caught using AI and the teacher reported me to Academic Misconduct Board. Then I got caught using AI again and got reported again. But I didn't see that she reported me the first time . Does anyone know what will happen to me.
Looking to get some insight into people's experience with CSU's graduate programs (specifically computer science).
Bonus points if anyone has experience in their 100% online options :)
I just got my acceptance letter. But then I went to sign up for orientation and got an access denied screen? Anyone know what’s up with that?
Hello, I'm currently trying to look into laptops for college and I keep seeing that it really depends on what programs you'll need to use. Which makes perfect sense, but I can't find those programs anywhere. So, if anyone can tell me what programs I might need for a data analytics minor or a criminal justice major, I'd appreciate it! (I'm more concerned about the data analytics, as I'm assuming criminal justice will mostly just need the Office 360 suite, but I want to be sure.)
I’m a senior in high school and I’m trying to shorten my college list. I’ve been accepted into CSU and I would just like to know whether or not it’s a decent school. I plan on living on campus and majoring in biology so I would really like to go to a school that suits my needs. What are your opinions about CSU? What are the pros/cons to attending?
Hi! I’m looking for friends to go to iron bank and study with. I’m not a CSU student but since I do school online( IT major) it’s been very difficult to make friends. I enjoy reading, watching anime, and going to the gym. I also play saxophone!
Hi, I’m very interested in this college to get a start on earning credits than to hopefully transferring them to apply for an university in the Netherlands which requires a student visa. And which universities abroad will transfer to and if anyone here knows any other easy to get into university in this state that can be transferred preferably to the Netherlands will be appreciated. I have to call the board of international education, but answer so I came here even though most likely the people probably wouldn’t even know this stuff.
Hello,
I have been considering trying to double major in Criminal Justice and the Forensics track of Chemistry, but I can't really find any information about people dual majoring in CSU. I'm not enrolled in the school yet, so I can't ask an advisor. My brother originally wanted to double major but they told him he couldn't, though he can't remember why. So, I was wondering if there's anyone in this sub with any information about dual majoring or requirements for it or anything. Any information would be appreciated!
