<p>im stuckkkkkkkk with why columbia question. i was thinkin just puttin down columbia's Core Curriculum and NYC.. but then it seems standard and boring...</p>
<p>wat did you guys put???</p>
<p>The question really should be why you want to go to Columbia. Why not any other school? What do you want from a college experience and how does Columbia fit into that goal?</p>
<p>If the Core happens to fulfill part of what you want in a college experience, then by all means write about it. However, I would stay away from saying NYC unless it's supplemented by something else. The admissions representitive on my tour emphisized how Columbia can be relocated away from NYC and still provide the same college experience.</p>
