Columbia University and Columbia College are distinct institutions, Columbia University is in New York, whereas Columbia College is in Canada. Columbia University is a highly ranked university with a competitive acceptance rate of just 4%. The tuition fee for Columbia University is around INR 50L-52L compared to Columbia College (INR 11L). Coming to Columbia College it isn’t that highly ranked but surely one of the good universities in Canada. But in conclusion both the universities are very different and are situated in different countries as well.
