Where do Columbus Academy families live?
Many families are doing a housing search along with their school search. Columbus Academy families come from 52+ different zip codes. We invite you to talk with our team about the transportation options available throughout the Columbus area as you explore your options.
How can I learn more about Columbus Academy if I can't visit in-person?
While a visit to our campus is the best way to learn about Columbus Academy, we recognize that may not work for everyone. If attending our fall Showcases does not work for you, we encourage you to consider scheduling a tour of campus. If the date/time options for tours listed don’t align with when you will be in the area, please contact our admissions team and we will be happy to work with you.
In addition, there are a lot of virtual ways to learn more. For the past few years, our previous Director of Admissions John Wuorinen '81 and his team hosted weekly webcasts called Zoom@Noon to give an inside look at the experience of a Columbus Academy education. While we will not be hosting new webcasts this school year, we invite you to explore our archive of past events via Spotify or YouTube. Each episode is full of valuable information and cover a variety of topics, including Outdoor Learning, Diversity and Community Life, The Independent School Model, College Counseling and more!
Check out our new admissions booklet which is stocked with divisional information, arts, athletics, college counseling and more. If you would like a paper copy of the booklet mailed to you, please let us know!
