Ben

My classmates were independent people and self-starters, eager to carve out their niches in the city.

Olga

Dedicated and study-oriented students with very clear stated life position, overachievers in multipal areas of their lives.Moreover, as good as their best opportunities.

Denis

Most of the other newly admitted students that I have met so far were very nice, however, a little bit shy. Nevertheless, I am sure everybody will loosen up a bit once the school year starts.

Jay

The students for the most part are all very chill (at least with my experience). Love the mix of CC, GS, SEAS and the other schools here. They each bring something new to the table and makes for a diverse and interesting student body.

The students at Columbia University come from all backgrounds; the diversity extends beyond that of religion and race. Columbia usually has an incoming class with students from all 50 states and over 90 countries; each student brings unique talents and attributes to a particular class. Columbia is also very generous in its financial aid policies, allowing students with an underprivileged background to attend without going into debt. Each individual is able to learn a lot from his or her peers; the diversity at Columbia is truly astonishing and only paralleled by a few other colleges and universities.

Elaine

Columbia students are extremely diverse and extremely open-minded about race, religion, sexual orientation, and socio-economic status. You can always meet someone new and, after a conversation with that person, see the world from a whole new perspective. You will meet people who think in a completely different way than you. Most students are extremely politically active, predominantly liberal.
