Columbia began its long list of university visits last week when it welcomed York University® to its campus. On Sept. 11, a York U representative held an information session for prospective students, discussing everything from program selection to residence life.
As one of Columbia’s University Partners, students were eager to learn more about the special benefits for Columbia graduates (including Dual Admission and four entrance scholarships each worth $2,000) offered by York.
