<p>You go to an amazing institution that skyrockets your ego so much you come off as an ass that almost ruins my love for Columbia.</p>
<p>^Ignore unhelpful posts. I do. You’ll live longer.</p>
<p>Columbia 2002 is a pretty helpful person. One anonymous internet post shouldn’t ruin your love.</p>
<p>love for columbia? should have thought before registering brown14 - aint that the devil.</p>
<p>i am sorry, i am with C02 on this one, the interview thread has been beaten to death. and when you add that Columbia has this on their FAQ - </p>
<p>"What is Columbia’s policy on admissions interviews?
Interviews are not required for admission. Volunteer members of Columbia’s Alumni Representative Committee (ARC) conduct interviews throughout the world from October through February every year on behalf of the Office of Undergraduate Admissions. However, because we have a finite number of alumni volunteers to interview the many thousands of candidates, we are unable to grant interviews to all of our applicants and can provide absolutely no guarantee that an interview will be available in any given area. Please note that interviews will be offered only in the area where your high school is located; if you have finished high school and are no longer nearby, an interview will not be available to you.</p>
<p>The earlier you submit Application for Admission 1 of your application, the better your chances are for an alumni interview. If the Alumni Representative Committee is able to offer you an interview, you will be contacted directly by an ARC member. Please note that interviews are conducted only by Alumni Representative Committee members, are not offered on campus and are positively not a requirement for admission.</p>
<p>Candidates who are not offered an interview are not at any disadvantage in the
admissions process. Because the actual assignment of interviews is not conducted
by the Office of Undergraduate Admissions, we respectfully ask that you do not call
or write to inquire about receiving an interview. You will be contacted directly between
the months of October and February if an interview is available in the same area as
your high school. Interviews are not offered to transfer students."</p>
<p>the fact that the OP doesn’t bother to look is bothersome. i think that on one hand i am always willing to be helpful (read my posts) and go the extra-mile, but i don’t think we should be operators and constantly push people in the obvious direction. if brown14 loves CU, he should show some love on the FAQ pages. this post is lazy, and without cause.</p>
