[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Dc (entering freshman) was a little shocked by the student club culture. Every single club needs applications and interviews and most have a very low probability of acceptance. Seriously regretting the decision to go to an Ivy. This was hardly DC's idea of what college life would be. We were willy to not know about any of this stuff?[/quote] My kid realized this touring Columbia when she asked about a club she had led at her HS level. She was so turned off by the response about how it was very competitive to get into that she refused to apply there (and got into a higher ranked non-ivy where they aren’t so snobby about this). She had spent 5 years building a welcoming inclusive supportive environment for the club at the MS and HS level and was really turned off by the attitude that you would have to compete even to get in.
