What is your reason for applying?

<p>What are your reasons for applying to Columbia? What sets it apart any other school? Why do you want to attend?</p>

<p>lol are u trying to get inspiration for the why columbia q on the app?</p>

<p>I am not applying to Columbia.</p>

<p>LOL I THINK HE IS...</p>

<p>=) just kidding</p>

<p>Do what you want..hehe</p>

<p>There have been numerous technological advances in the modern age, and the time between each revolution has decreased like the lines on a semi-log graph. The semiconductors discovered in the mid 20th century spurred the massive computer revolution in the 1980s, which in turn helped to create the internet revolution in the early 1990s. The wireless revolution, our latest revolution, allowed cellular phones, palm pilots, and the wireless connection to make communication easier. The next revolution will be in the biotechnology field, and the University of Pennsylvania is at the forefront of bioengineering research. The numerous strengths of the College at Penn, the in-depth classes the SEAS offers, the Engineering Entrepreneurship program, and the famous research program will allow me to prosper in our dynamic world!
I am still a high school senior; I have not developed specific interests but the University of Pennsylvania will ensure that I will discover my passion. I feel that I am still somewhat of a Renaissance man. I enjoy debating political issues such as Taiwan?s and Palestine?s sovereignty with my friends. We also talk about how Mozart is ?too perfect? or how nature?s efficiency can be utilized to resolve the impending energy crisis. The University of Pennsylvania?s strengths are not centered on one discipline; every program is strong. I feel that I can continue (or at least try) learning about not just the stuff in my major but in the other fields as well, especially music, politics, and the natural sciences.</p>

<p>ALL he asked was why you want to go, he just wanted to know.</p>

<p>kissoff: you come on this board seeking consolation/help from "elitist bastards?" </p>

<p>to the OP: I applied to Columbia because it exemplified the kind of learning/coming of age environment I always wanted - competitive yet where the students freely share insights; abundant in resources with doors to all that NYC has to offer; curriculum's fit and flexibility to my career pursuits. In short, Columbia is ideal and it's people with intelligence and open goodheartness like the ones on this board that make it so.</p>
