<p>I'm trying to decide between Princeton and Columbia... I don't want to go at lengths about what I like/dislike about each university, but I really like Columbia (it has been on the top of my list since the beginning of J high.)</p>
<p>However, I'm worried about one thing: Administration. Not for the undergrads as a whole, but for incoming freshmen in particular. I know that at Columbia, there's no hand holding and special attention. But how were they at helping your child(ren) transition into the campus, workload, class registration, housing, etc? Is there some sort of support, or are students left stranded, running around and asking seniors for advice? Also, does being a scholar (Kluge) help in terms of more/better advising?</p>
<p>Please, Columbia parents, inform me on this! Thank you very much!</p>
