From Columbia State Community College

It's no secret that Columbia State's five campuses in southern Middle Tennessee and affordable tuition make it a great choice for many students. However, it is the nurturing and friendly atmosphere–a place where faculty know your name–that makes Columbia State unique. Named the 2021 Tennessee Community College of the Year, Columbia State also has the distinction of being the first community college established in Tennessee.
