Colbourne College, Currently in the process of transition to Colbourne University College is a private tertiary
institution registered by the University Council of Jamaica and the Ministry of Education. Our academic centre is
situated in Savannalamar, Westmoreland with administrative and outreach locations in Montego Bay, Ocho Rios,
Kingston and Mandeville.
In congruence with its Mission and its commitment to higher education, Colbourne rests its philosophy on the belief
that students must develop the ability to think and express themselves clearly. As a result, all courses are founded
on the study of humanities. Students are not only provided with intrinsic knowledge of the course of study, but are
trained to understand the important role played by underlying social, cultural, economic, and political values and to
make strategic decisions that consider these factors.
Colbourne’s end product is students who are well rounded and fully prepared to take on the challenges of further
study and wider society. Our students achieve the following learning outcomes:
