The College Walk Society (CWS) is a leadership giving society for Columbia College’s alumni, parents and friends who make a meaningful contribution in support of financial aid at the College. Members are dedicated to investing in financial aid and share the belief that the opportunity to pursue knowledge should not be constrained by a student’s background or ability to pay. They ensure that the College can uphold its commitment to meeting the demonstrated financial need of all of our students at the present and in the future.
Membership
Membership in the College Walk Society begins at $100,000, with membership for Columbia College graduates of the last 15 years starting at $50,000.
A blend of endowed and current-use giving is preferred. The College’s long-term commitment to financial aid can only be secured through a dedicated and considerable endowment. At the same time, current-use gifts through the Columbia College Fund allow us to distribute funds right away and meet our commitments to current students.

Opportunity to name a current-use or endowed scholarship
Annual update about the recipient of your scholarship
Invitation to exclusive events

Exclusive communications
