<p>Those who are going to Columbia next Fall, either as college students, graduate or medicine or whatever, introduce yourselves.
Say where are you from, what's gonna be your major, why did you choose this scholl, or whatever it might be interesting to know</p>
<p>nobody whatsoever?????</p>
<p>Why don't you start with yourself.</p>
<p>OK, then. I come from Mexico, I majored in literature as an undergrad. and now I'm going to do Near Eastern Studies at CU.
I hope somebody answers this thread, it's not a bad idea to form a community of people going there next fall</p>
<p>Hey, My name is Tiffany. I am from Chicago. I am probaly going to major in English or Political Science. I'm really psyched about Columbia in the fall.
I have already figured out my fall schedule:</p>
<p>Literature in Humanities (4 pts)
Uni. Writing/ Frontiers of Science prob UW b/c my last name begins with a D (3 pts)
Elementary Latin (4 pts)
Intro to Human Rights (3 pts)
Cardio Fitness (1 pt)</p>
<p>15 points</p>
<p>Tell me what you all think.</p>
<p>You probably have time to throw in a 3-hour english course your freshman year; 18 hours is pretty manageable for a good student.</p>
<p>Hello all. My name is Brian, and I'm from Georgia (definitely ready to get out). I want to double major in English and history, and I also want to study French and Russian.</p>
<p>bing121086: is Georgia that bad?</p>
<p>It could be a lot worse, I guess, but there's nothing around except cotton fields, pecan tree groves, etc. There's a military base, but other than that, not much. Don't get me wrong, there are definitely things I like about Georgia like the accent and the friendly people, but I won't miss the triple-digit temperatures (although I guess I will be back for summers), I won't miss being the only democrat for miles, and I won't miss there being nothing to do. It has its benefits, but I am definitely looking forward to NYC.</p>
<p>Hi, all. I'm Betsy (officially I'm Elizabeth, but call me Betsy) from Indianapolis, IN. I was born in Norwalk, CT, though, and all of my family members are east coasters at heart, so I'm excited to go back to that area. I play the violin and I was really dedicated until the summer started, but since school got out I only get myself to practice every other day, or two... or three. I'm also interested in French after I did an immersion program last summer in Bretagne. I plan on majoring in economics, probably with a concentration in mathematics, depending on how my unrealistic hopes of doing the combined program with the law school turn out. facebook me! <a href="http://columbia.thefacebook.com/profile.php?id=113058%5B/url%5D">http://columbia.thefacebook.com/profile.php?id=113058</a></p>
<p>I've noticed that a lot of Columbians play instruments, why is that? Is it because the combined program with Julliard? Cause I've seen that a lot of people mention the instruments they play on their applications; is it more likely to be admitted if you play an instrument?</p>
<p>I think that so many students play instruments because it's a creative campus and that's just the kind of people that Columbia attracts. Not just musicians per se, but artists of all mediums and generally creative thinkers.</p>
<p>Well I know that I became quite the virtuoso on the recorder which I played for twelve weeks in fourth grade.</p>
