CUC at a Glance 
What is Columbia Union College?
Columbia Union College is a private four-year liberal arts college located in a suburban setting inside the beltway near the nation’s capital. We are also a Christian college, affiliated with the Seventh-day Adventist Church. What makes Columbia Union College distinctive?
Our students tell us that one of the major reasons they keep choosing CUC is the distinctive quality of the educational experience they find here, featuring caring professors who actually teach their classes (instead of having graduate assistants do it) and who will take time to sit down and talk, not just about academic subjects, but also about the student’s dreams and aspirations. Another primary distinction is our location near the nation’s capital, which translates into a unique quality of education and a remarkably exciting lifestyle, with so much to see and do and such vast cultural opportunities. Is Columbia Union College the best school for me?

Are looking for challenging academics. Are interested in opportunities for intellectual and spiritual growth.
