Can engineering students study abroad?
columbia does have that campus-like feel and the best thing is that it offers either the campus feel or the urban feel depending on where you live and what you prefer but you will definately get both experiences since you will live on campus freshman year and off the main campus the other three years (probably) You will have a lower GPA than if you were in the college but compared to other engineering schools it hands out better grades. It is hard for an engineering student to study abroad but its doable if you plan it perfectly from the very very beginning.
