Columbia 3-week Summer Immersion Program

For commuters the program is kinda overrated. You can only go to classes and can’t go on any of the trips or hang out with any of your friends in their dorms, or the library, or pretty much anywhere. You have to coordinate everything with them and a lot of times they are on different trips or just hanging in their dorm so you can’t go hang with them. But the classes themselves are really fun and interesting!!

That review is the one most referenced for this program, and while some things are sort of true, most things are different now because that was written in 2008. Don’t trust everything you read from that long ago. I just finished it 7/15/17 I know what it is really like now

I had many commuter friends and to be blunt, you are completely secluded and can’t do anything with the residentials outside of class unless you go somwhere else. Literally the only thing you can do is go to class. Most people I knew came at 9 and stayed through class and lunch then went home at 3.

Where were you able to secure a scholarship from? I reached out to them and they said I would need to secure outside aid as they do not have scholarship programs.

Hello, Im thinking about applying to psychology program for session 1, is anyone going to apply for 2019 summer? iI would love to get in touch

Does anyone have an idea of when applications for 2019 summer will be available?

@thegoodfriend they’re already available, I started applying but i’m not sure if i should complete the app since i’ve been told its a bad program

How selective is this program? Does anybody not get accepted?

I’m applying to this program for the Summer of 2019, but I’m not completely sure that if I get in that I would be able to go. Does anyone know if there is a penalty fee if one gets into the program and is unable to attend? And if so how much?

How are the acceptances for everyone this year? I got into the Creative Writing Journalism and Nonfiction program and was wondering if anyone had some insight to it or to how the program is recently?

I got into conservation biology but lately, I’ve been regretting it because it has nothing to do with my interest in surgical medicine. Does anybody know if this course is good?
