[quote=Anonymous]OP, this must be a very tough decision. You've received some good comments on this thread. Pls consider one academic issue -- Brown doesn't really have a long list of core requirements and major requirements. Only a few distribution requirements are in play, and one can elect no major and only a concentration. Columbia is one of the two (the other is UChicago) US universities with the most intensive distribution requirements. And Columbia is a 5-course semester, not a 4 course semester (like Brown and Harvard). Pls have your DC make sure that the Trinity/Columbia 2+2 program takes into account the fact that, at Columbia, in every one of their undergrad colleges (Columbia College, Barnard, Engineering, and GS) the core courses and major together typically occupy 3 years of the 4. Will your DC be 100% assured that the Trinity/Columbia program doesn't involve the possible risk of a 5th year? [/quote]
