Zombie College is a Flash animated cartoon series created by television writer Eric Kaplan and directed by John Rice for icebox.com.[1][2][3][4] 12 episodes were produced.

Pre-production work was done in Los Angeles at Icebox.com, while the flash animation was handled by Seattle's Smashing Ideas.[5]

On November 29, 2000, Icebox announced they had reached a deal with Fox to create a live-action Zombie College pilot written by Kaplan. However, the announcement would prove to be premature as Fox pulled out after learning in the same announcement, Icebox would lay off half of their 100-person staff and that they were being sued by entertainment website WireBreak.com over non-payments toward another series both websites were producing.[6]

The show, along with other Icebox cartoons was acquired by Mondo Mini Shows and later be uploaded to Mondo's YouTube channel.[7]
