Students can access CougarMail by logging into CougarTrack.

CougarTrack allows students access to CougarMail (the official means of communication for the college) and to their Columbia College records via the internet. Students may view their Columbia College transcripts, grades, student schedules, and more. Enrollment processes, to include registration and adding and dropping classes, are also available through CougarTrack. Once students have completed an enrollment process online, an e-mail confirmation of their activity is sent, which should be reviewed carefully for accuracy. Contact the Office of the Registrar at (573) 875-7600 with questions.

Students with documented disabilities who may need assistance with access to an event or program, or who require classroom academic adjustments, auxiliary aids or services, must register with the coordinator of Disability Services at (573) 875-7626.
Study Abroad Programs
Columbia College encourages students to explore opportunities to study outside the United States. The College maintains exchange partnerships with universities in Japan, South Korea, Thailand and the United Kingdom. The College is a member of the Missouri Study Abroad Intercollegiate Consortium (MOSAIC), the Central College (IA) study abroad consortium and Webster University’s (WINS) network. Columbia College also offers a Study Tour to a different country or region of the world each year. These tours typically take place at the end of the spring semester. Trips last 9-14 days, and students may earn up to six credits of optional coursework. In addition, students may participate in study abroad programs offered by other institutions or providers. Any student participating in a study abroad program must submit a Study Abroad Application to the Study Abroad Office. Dr. Brian Kessel, Study Abroad Advisor, counsels students about the availability, value and academic appropriateness of these programs. Students interested in obtaining more information about short-term, semester or internship abroad programs should contact Dr. Kessel at (573) 875-7625 or blkessel@ccis.edu.
