Academics: Columbia is not that great of a school overall, I can't say how good or bad of a school in the end and helping me in my job, but my experience in doing so wasn't good. Where to start, you major I guess, I was a game design/dev in the Interactive Art Media(IAM), they force you to take two majors so if your like me and hate programming or are not interested in anything else but game design your forced to take classes you don't need nor want to take. This is what hurt me, is that I couldn't program (which is what game development is) (it's hard, and teachers just can't teach it right), but switching out wasn't an option because I didn't want to do animation for example and especially not as a job if I couldn't do game design but there was an opening for an animator, and doing just a game design major wasn't possible cause you have to double major in something your not interested in (maybe not if your interested in another major) just to be in Columbia and get a degree in your interested major. The other bad part of overall Columbia classes (every major) is that you have to take math, science, cultural studies, reading/writing classes, most of which you could take in high school and most with high school level material. So your wasting time, money, whatever precious resources and putting them towards classes that are useless, boring, easy, won't help you in your major let alone have anything to do w/ your major, and it's taking away from your extremely important classes in your major. I guess it does look a little better that you took a science class so you "know a little more" than someone that didn't, but that's about the only good thing. Everything else: Socially, people seem to talk and meet other people, unfortunately (may be different for you) this wasn't the case for me, I barely meat anyone due and have made barely a good friend that I can hang out with all the time due to the campus size(if there is one) as there is a lot of dorms scattered all over the Chicago loop from all schools (DePaul, Roosevelt), some people live off campus at there homes way out in the suburbs or even other states, I got stuck with a bad roommate my first year who didn't help with that at all, activities in dorms are lame and so are the people that go to em, outings from the dorm aren't as bad but nothing really good, every once in a while you get sports tickets which is really good (if you don't know, Chicago sports teams/fans are some of the best in every aspect). They don't have a lot of get togethers for people to meet each other. Also the girls (don't know about the guys) are average looking for the most part, not a lot of hotties. If you coming to Columbia to party, don't, it's pretty lame and so are the people that go to em, but only come if you know people out by Notre Dame (about an 1.5hr train ride direct and car drive) cause that's where I always hear about the crazy fun parties go on. So overall Columbia's social scene is ok, hard to meet people, even harder to meet people you can hang out with, much better if you know someone already in it. If your at all interested in playing sports, prepare to be extremely disappointed, we could barely get a soccer team together and be able to play local teams, no tryouts, just whoever comes is on. At least basketball we were able to get a team together, though it's more of a pickup team that thinks they're serious biz cause they play local high schools, but it was still horrible, in our first game, it was ballhog after ballhog that couldn't shoot and don't even think about passing, oh and did I tell we got crushed by a high school team? Yea, I decided that I was gonna quit at halftime it was that bad. There's also no baseball team apparently, because I contacted the person in charge and didn't even get a response back. If your not interested in sports teams more intramural sports there's barely anything to 0 of even flag football, frisbie, etc. So, wow, Columbia really, Really sucks, a lot, I personally don't like it almost hate it, you may have a different experience if you don't mind working your butt off in/for classes, enjoy both of your majors, somehow get into the social scene, and aren't big on sports, than you probably will like Columbia. I do recommend the University Center dorm, it is most excellent, modern, great apartments and suites, really good food.
