[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would do some research before trying to transfer to Columbia. This was years ago, but I considered it and the intensive first year core requirements would have made it very onerous to transfer there. You could not waive out of a number of the core requirements and would be forced to take them sophomore year. I was admitted but declined for that reason. [/quote] This is true, transfer students have to complete the Core (SEAS have fewer Core requirements). It is why it is better to transfer to Columbia as a Sophomore rather than Junior. It also works best for students who took courses for their major as freshmen, so that they have useful prerequisites completed. Presumably though a student whose dream school has always been Columbia knows about the Core and is excited for those classes. [/quote]
