[quote=Anonymous]I graduated from Columbia university 5 years ago. I would NOT recommend it. It’s fantastic for the education, quality of professors, and job opportunities post graduation (only if you want to stay in NYC though) but social life and quality of life is terrible. I saw so much depression, eating disorders, drugs and mental illness. Also a ton of snobbery, probably because everyone feels very insecure all the time. Barnard College across the street is definitely better, but still a tough place socially. It is not the kind of place where you can relax in sweatpants with your friends. Everyone feels pressure to look good and act like they’re at the height of success at all times. I’ve done well since and don’t regret going, but I wouldn’t go back if I had to do it again. I’d go to a school not in a big city so I could get more campus life and fun. [/quote]
