[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was just looking at the Columbia 3/2 program a couple weeks ago with my DC, who is ADHD, but graduating from TJ, probably in the 25-50% with a senior engineering lab.  He's strong in humanities, and I like the idea of him going to a small LAC like Davidson for 3 years, doing the core classes and getting a degree in anything her wants, then finishing at Columbia.  I'l afraid he will get lost at a large school his first couple of years. Plus, if he could get a merit scholarship to an LAC that does the 3/2 program, we could pay for 2 years at Columbia-- but would be hard pressed to pay for 4, even if he could get in.

PP who have BTDT-- good move or bad idea?  It seems win-win given his circumstances.  But I don't know if it works IRL. Advice?[/quote]

Couple of questions:

- How can one get a degree in 3 years from a SLAC?  I thought the final degree comes from columbia in the 3+2 program with all the LAC credits transferred over.

- Is there a list of colleges that feed into the columbia 3+2 program or is it open to all schools?

- Does any other elite university have such a program?[/quote]
