[quote=Anonymous]Each student is assigned an advisor.  It is easy to make friends; students comes from all 50 states and from all over the world to be freshmen/freshwomen at Columbia.

The students work hard and are academically driven. There is a reason why it is number 3 on US News. The college has always been dedicated to life of the mind and the life of culture, since its founding in 1754.

Have you considered simply to call the dean's office and admissions office at Columbia and ask to speak to relevant people on staff about the advisory system and about ANY and as many questions that you have ? No question is too minor if it is important to you or your child. The staff know this and are very happy to address any concern.

Plenty of students from the rural states and suburbs, and all kinds if personalities and interests abopund.

I urge you to call andASK any questions and as many questions until you are satisfied. If Columbia accepted your child, it clearly wants him/her to succeed. There is also a strong involvement of parents, and I am sure you can be given some phonenumbers of Columbia parents involved in campus matters to talk to. On the Columbia College webpage there i a section about parents' engagement with the College.

Your child has won an intellectual/cultural lottery, Congrtulations.  :) [/quote]
