Wonder how hard it is to transfer
it’s pretty hard to transfer
and barnard is kind of excluded tbh 💀

columbia has weird rules against barnard meal swiping that barnard doesn’t have for columbia and a few other things

i don’t gotta wear a wig or dress
devout mirage
who says u have to look like a woman to identify as one
they wouldnt let someone who looks like a full on man be in the dorms bro 💀
You'd have to be mid-transition or planning on transitioning when u get to college
native hatch
don’t apply to barnard just for the acceptance rate
or because you want to be affiliated with columbia
barnard is across the street but barnard is autonomous

its a columbia college bruh 💀
it'll be way better for IB recruiting
and opportunities
devout mirage
Is barnard even well known
peak pike
yes
devout mirage
maybe its because im already a trans man but i cannot imagine calling myself a woman in any capacity if im not 💀
peak pike
we all would do different things to get what we want ig
broken hound
Would be weird if a grown ass man showed up to an IB interview and his resume said Bernard
They are separate colleges in the eyes of recruiters
peak pike
barnard has prestige
native hatch
barnard isn’t columbia college or seas
different entities
barnard has their own president
own dorms
different classes
a lot of things aren’t synced
also less funding and different rules
you’re going to get a barnard experience at barnard
not a columbia undergraduate experience
keep that in mind
broken hound
barnard has prestige
Most people have never heard of Bernard before
I hadn’t until I joined here
peak pike
not a columbia undergraduate experience
true
broken hound
In the work world maybe it’s more prestigious
peak pike
im not going to do this anyway but

what percentage of the incoming class does columbia allocate to ed?
50%
wise haven
This is semi normal man
cunning osprey
oh
i dont really know
allocating ed to 50% where u have significantly less apps sounds a bit off to my uneducated ears
wise haven
ED is typically significantly more qualified than RD
So those accepted through ED were gonna get RD anywyas
cunning osprey
praying that im qualified 🙏

devout mirage
they dont include home equity what
they do

devout mirage
our home equity is enough it makes a difference
devout mirage
my initial estimate was 20k more than im payingnow
dang rlly?
devout mirage
i need at maximum 25k or i cant afford it
native hatch
they said id be paying 25k
devout mirage
i was estimated 35k
thats what im being estimated
native hatch
i didn't need columbia insurance so that got taken off, i got a 5k scholarship so my student contrib was 0, and then they just gave me more finaid no appeal
columbia insurance is like 4-5k
if you have insurance thru ur parents
that comes off
you can def appeal and ive heard they take off 2-5k minimum
esp for ed
devout mirage
you can def appeal and ive heard they take off 2-5k minimum
so worst case scenario i get 40k, insurance is 5k off and appeal takes off 2k, plus 5k scholarship as well, thats 28k
not bad
maybe

questionable
unique jacinth
if my fam makes 300 a year, i still recieve aid right?
thats very very roughly what my parents make too
i also have a sibling
finaid calc said my likely aid was 0 and my "low" aid was 1k bruh
parents are in a unique situation where they make a ton but still cant afford it bc of other costs
native hatch
parents are in a unique situation where they make a ton but still cant afford it...
finaid officers are truly understanding
you can sit down w/ one and talk abt finances with your family over zoom
or schedule an appt in person
winged hinge
idk abt other schools but i do genuniely think columbia's fin aid is rreallly good
like everyone ive talked to has mentioned them being very accomodating
the trend seems to be if you get in to columbia youll be able to attend
native hatch
yep
quasi kayak
is columbia v open to appeals?
unique jacinth
the trend seems to be if you get in to columbia youll be able to attend
interesting, but my dilemma is my parents are only willing to pay 30k (but our household income of 300k basically instantly disqualifies us from aid)
they’re immigrants so like it was really hard for them to build a living in the us and pay off debt from their phd and 2 masters (their fields basically necessitate this for good opportunities)

just to make sure, i only have self report my sat score on commonapp right?
no need to send official scores via the sat page on collegeboard?
broken hound
There are some colleges that require an official score report, like CMU and Georgetown.
Columbia is not one of them
So just type ur score into the common app and ur good
cunning osprey
ight thx

When i hit review and submit for columbia it says: Columbia University has chosen not to include certain Common App responses in the PDF they receive for your application. As a result, the following questions and answers will not be on your PDF:

Why are you interested in attending Columbia University?
can this also include why columbia college or why columbia engineering?
native hatch
> Why are you interested in attending Columbia University?
can this also include...
is there a separate prompt for why cc/seas
cunning osprey
is there a separate prompt for why cc/seas
not exactly?
devout mirage
is there a separate prompt for why cc/seas
is why major at seas
native hatch
not exactly?
if it’s why major, then do why major (+ a little why school specific)
but for why columbia
talk about anything and everything tbh
cunning osprey
including both schools?
even though im applying to one only?
or like interesections of both schools that both experience
native hatch
id focus on the school ur applying to
cunning osprey
so its ok to talk abt why columbia engineering in my why columbia essay?
native hatch
yes
native hatch
you got this
devout mirage
sorry if im being redundant my ass is shaking rn
are u sure ur applying to seas?
the prompt is
why do you wanna study your major at columbia engineering?
cunning osprey
yeah but im talking abt the why columbia essay
the one before the why major in columbia engineering
devout mirage
yeah but im talking abt the why columbia essay
ur applying to seas so thats why columbia i think
devout mirage
the one before the why major in columbia engineering
since cc is pretty much an entirely diff school minus the core classes u have to take
youll be fine lol
cunning osprey
yeah i wont be talking abt cc
devout mirage
yeah i wont be talking abt cc
they have different admissions committees too
so i doubt theyd expect u to talk about cc
cunning osprey
they have different admissions committees too
oh interesting
native hatch
they have different admissions committees too
no they don’t
do they
cc and seas applications are typically grouped together
cunning osprey
oh
devout mirage
do they
a lot of the admissions officers work in both committees
but like some are just exclusive to CC and SEAS
wise haven
i think they have select people for each for select applciatns
devout mirage
i mean all ik is they have 2 diff committees
devout mirage
cc and seas applications are typically grouped together
i think theyre grouped together for regional
but im pretty sure theyre different for committee
wise haven
oh that makes sense
devout mirage
im going to be rejected
i believe in u
devout mirage
im going to be rejected
they're looking for high levels of calc and physics
so if u have those
thats a checkmark
wise haven
they're looking for high levels of calc and physics
i have calc bc and ap physics 1 rn
well the equivalent of them
devout mirage
i have calc bc and ap physics 1 rn
is that the highest physics course at ur school
wise haven
yeah
calc 3 is the highest but the school didnt fucking tell me i coudl double up so
calc 1 and 2 it is
native hatch
im going to be rejected
nuh uh
native hatch
remember your training young jedi
devout mirage
calc 3 is the highest but the school didnt fucking tell me i coudl double up so
put that in addtl info
wise haven
how
devout mirage
that you didn't know of acceleration opportunities to move up a math
native hatch
u didnt do jackshit
ok so ur reimbursing me $16.50 x 3
cunning osprey
should i put i couldnt take ap phys c bc i didnt take ap phys 2 before then
im taking ap phys 2 now
native hatch
and a shipping and handling fee for letting u into columbia AND barnard buildings…
uh huh
devout mirage
should i put i couldnt take ap phys c bc i didnt take ap phys 2 before then
idk is it a prerequisite
devout mirage
and a shipping and handling fee for letting u into columbia AND barnard building...
are u guys allowed into the barnard buildings
native hatch
yes
cunning osprey
yeah ap phys 2 is a preeq to phys c in my school
devout mirage
yeah ap phys 2 is a preeq to phys c in my school
wtf so youd have to start sophomore year to get to it
cunning osprey
i would need to take phys 2 junior year
but my ass wanted to learn abt climate change and shit so i took ap environ
native hatch
ur good i’m literally a physics major and all i took in hs was physics I
cunning osprey
which is like the least rigrous science class
devout mirage
i mean u took 2 years of physics
devout mirage
if ur getting rejected thats not why
cunning osprey
yea
devout mirage
i rlly wanna but i dont have the motivation to do 4 essays in 4 days
wise haven
real
native hatch
u should
cunning osprey
indeed real
devout mirage
plus alkie convinced me
native hatch
alkie is WRONG
devout mirage
that its probably better for me not to be binded
unique jacinth
this school too expensive breh
unique jacinth
that its probably better for me not to be binded
yea same
wise haven
that its probably better for me not to be binded
based on ur interests, ig
cunning osprey
alkie is WRONG
the yale vs columbia beef coming in strong
devout mirage
based on ur interests, ig
i mean i wanna study bme + indigenous studies + premed
that'll be hell at columbia
impossible
native hatch
i mean i wanna study bme + indigenous studies + premed
bme covers premed reqs
you can get an indigenous minor
devout mirage
bme covers premed reqs
i talked to the director guy
he said id need to take 3 classes over the summer minimum for premed
6 classes for every term
native hatch
just for bme? what
devout mirage
premed is mainly covered by bme tho right
yes
its mainly covered by bme
thats why only 3 classes
native hatch
that’s not a columbia skill issue that’s a standard thing
devout mirage
that’s not a columbia skill issue that’s a standard thing
its the core that prevents it
devout mirage
we still have an engineering core of engineering classes we have to take
its still a "core" in the general sense
native hatch
yeah and that covers some premed too
devout mirage
some yeah
devout mirage
yeah
native hatch
it’s not bad
native hatch
u would have to do that anywhere
devout mirage
u would have to do that anywhere
not exactly
stanford and dartmouth for example, i could knock off my gen eds with indigenous studies courses
for history, literature, language
thats literally the only reason im not ed though
devout mirage
i love everything about the school except that pretty much
also the essays ive synthesized so far have been really trash
its gonna get impossible to get them ready in 4 days
exotic mortar
its gonna get impossible to get them ready in 4 days

devout mirage

cunning osprey
i think i synthesized my flyin essays in 30 minutes
what are ur secrets
devout mirage
i think i synthesized my flyin essays in 30 minutes
i synthesized mine in 2 hours
