<p>Hello! As a current senior, I have narrowed my choices down to Penn, Columbia, or Stanford. I realize the quality of academics at any of these institutions will be unparalleled, and I'm incredibly grateful to have these choices to begin with.</p>
<p>At Columbia, I plan to major in Sociology. The Core is one of my favorite selling points of Columbia; it seems like a great way to develop intellectually in college. Academics aside, my #1 consideration is the availability of opportunities in civic service + entrepreneurship. My passion is social entrepreneurship, specifically in education reform. </p>
<p>The Kenneth Cole Community Engagement Program and CCIA seem particularly intriguing to me.</p>
<p>If you're a Columbia student who has experience (or is familiar) with these programs (or related programs), can you expand on your experiences? What other opportunities exist for social entrepreneurship?</p>
<p>I'd love to hear any first-hand accounts from actual Columbia students. Thank you!</p>
