[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]http://www.college.columbia.edu/news/columbia-sees-record-high-applications-class-2025.     Read the recent article, also on the internet with articles by different publications for March 2021 for the Class of 2025.

'Wednesday, March 10, 2021
More than 60,500 students have applied to the Class of 2025 at Columbia College and The Fu Foundation School of Engineering and Applied Science, an extraordinary increase of 51 percent over last year and an all-time high for the two schools.'

These applications for admissions by 17-18 year olds from high school to the College and SEAS  has nothing to do with the School of General Studies.[/quote]

....and yet they share the same classrooms, take the same exams, take up the same amount of the professors time, etc.  with SGS students.  Once again, 1/3 of the undergraduate class at Columbia is made up of non traditional students.  Why does Columbia have such a huge percentage of its students, most of whom would never get in as 18 year old freshman, in its classrooms?  I know why.  It’s called a money grab. Promising graduates they have a prestigious degree from Columbia and charging full freight. Why do I say this?  Because the supposedly students/graduates of Columbia here discount the SGS degree.  I certainly would as well if I were a Columbia College or SEAS student/graduate. After all, my degree was written in Latin and yours is only in English. [/quote]
