Question for Columbians (or future ones)

<p>hey, I'm working on my columbia app and am confused...so they only want ONE essay? I have two written from my Harvard EA application, and they're both good...I can't decide which to send...this is unusual though, how come Columbia only wants ONE essay?</p>

<p>Because Columbia's awesome...
They don't ask useless questions..or need excessive numbers of essays...</p>

<p>from what i hear, they're understaffed, so they don't want to read more than they have to. go ask your teachers/guidance counselor which essay is better, and send that one.</p>
