Revision as of 00:45, 3 April 2008
See the Office of Undergraduate Admissions for CC/SEAS.
See the Columbia Statistical Abstract for Admissions and Enrollment statistics from the last 3 years for all divisions of Columbia University.
- Columbia College accepts approximately every 1 in 11 applicants.[1]
- SEAS accepts approximately every 1 in 5.5 applicants.[1]
- Barnard College accepts approximately every 1 in 3.5 applicants.[1]
- General Studies accepts approximately every 1 in 2 applicants. [2]
Columbia therefore remains less selective than Wal-Mart.[3]
Even though Columbia accepts all of these people, not all of them matriculate.
