Throughout the academic year, representatives from Undergraduate Admissions travel extensively to introduce Columbia University to prospective students. In addition to the many individual high school visits that take place around the world, Columbia partners with other colleges and universities to hold public group information sessions in different regions.
These events provide prospective students and families with a brief introduction to each participating school and the opportunity to learn more about the college admissions process broadly. Group information sessions include a brief overview of each institution, information on admissions and financial aid and a chance to ask questions of admissions representatives. Virtual group sessions and programs are also available during the fall and spring semesters.
