Discovery Days are the most comprehensive way to experience Columbus State University.

Students will also have the opportunity to speak with faculty to gain insight about the academic offerings available at Columbus State. 

There are four Discovery Days offered each Academic Year. Generally there are two in the fall semester and two in the spring semester. They take place on select Saturdays and typically last between three to five hours. All Discovery Days require pre-registration due to limited space availability.
