Are campus visits offered?
Campus visits of the Columbia Graduate Center are encouraged. Students who are beginning their exploration into the program should contact the department in order to schedule an informal information session to explore how the different degree programs might meet their needs. Once a student applies to the program, an interview with the particular degree’s Admissions Director is required. These interviews are scheduled once the student’s file is complete and attempts to accommodate a student’s schedule. MS/PhD and Ph.D. applicants will interview with several members of the faculty. This process may mean that a particular day will be reserved when all MS/PhD and Ph.D. applicants will be required to be available for their admissions interview. Master of Science students, Master of Arts students, Certificate of Advanced Studies, and Special students will be contacted in order to schedule the interview.
