<p>Hi guys,</p>
<p>I'm applying to Columbia's School of General Studies and I just completed my essay. I was wondering if anyone would be kind enough to read it to help me to determine whether it's good enough.
Also, on the issue of financial aid, I heard/read conflicting information. Although it does not receive as much funding as the other schools in Columbia, I heard they still offer full scholarships to some students. Can anyone confirm? There are a million similar threads, I know..but I just want to get to the bottom of this.</p>
<p>I’d be willing to read it and give you some feedback. I submitted my own essay in early Feb. Just PM me or email it to <a href="mailto:bobneek84@gmail.com">bobneek84@gmail.com</a></p>
<p>I would also be willing to read your essay. PM me or send it to <a href="mailto:rluke2286@yahoo.com">rluke2286@yahoo.com</a></p>
<p>I also already turned in mine and would be willing to read yours. <a href="mailto:lizliz.sanford@gmail.com">lizliz.sanford@gmail.com</a></p>
<p>thank you guys for being so helpful</p>
<p>I emailed you guys. But does anyone have any info about the question I asked about financial/scholarships??</p>
<p>i was under the impression that a full ride is generally limited to students in the P.A.L.S. program? not sure though.</p>
<p>OK, I see. Looking forward to all your responses to my essay. :)</p>
<p>i haven’t received your email, by the way…</p>
<p>That’s strange. I’m assuming nobody else did, either. Let me try again. Please let me know if you’ve received it.</p>
<p>got it and emailed you back a minute ago!</p>
<p>I’d be willing to take a look at it

<p>Thanks Johnnie. Do you happen to know for sure what the process is in awarding aid/scholarships? Did you apply to the school of General Studies?</p>
<p>Columbia GS offers scholarships around 6-8k for incoming students, you’ll find more information in the application booklet they are handing out.</p>
<p>I’d also be interested in reading your essay, <a href="mailto:simonsaccounts@gmail.com">simonsaccounts@gmail.com</a></p>
<p>Thanks. From what I read about Institutional Scholarships, it IS POSSIBLE to get full scholarships at the School of General Studies.</p>
<p>Yes, I applied for Fall 2011 Beyond what Patrick said and filling out the FASFA if accepted, I am not sure what all is available. (Maybe some PTK scholarships if you are in PTK.)</p>
<p>I would be glad to look at your essay. <a href="mailto:andrewlawson87@aol.com">andrewlawson87@aol.com</a></p>
<p>I think I remember the admissions rep I met with saying the range of grants given could include a full ride. She asked me if I was in PKT, but I didn’t hear more about the opportunities for members, since I’m not one.</p>
<p>Thanks for your responses guys.</p>
<p>I’ll send it to you now if you don’t mind.</p>
