A Walk Through Campus

Take a history-filled stroll through your Columbia home.

I used to watch this video every night to motivate myself to work as hard as possible to get into Columbia one day. The music and narration always gave me goosebumps, reminding me of my dream. In fact, I watched it so many times that I can now recite the words from start to finish. Now here I am, having been accepted to the Columbia College class of 2027!

This video is amazing. Me and my 2.5 GPA cannot wait to get in.

Had a dream that Columbia denied me last night so I had to watch this to stay motivated

[manueldawson-johnson]

I’m gonna apply here in the fall, this is my dream school, praying I can get in.

I spent every day while I was at Columbia dreading the day I would have to graduate and leave it. The campus wasn't just bricks and mortar to me; it was veins and blood and a million voices pulsating through history and into my soul. I miss you and love you, CU.

Just got accepted for Graduate School here! It’s been my dream campus, dream university and dream community for years now 😭 so excited to see Columbia with my own eyes soon!

10/10 job by the narrator. warm and insightful, would listen to narration again. also...shout out to narrators everywhere - the unsung heroes of documentaries

The amount of New York space this university has is insane!

I went to Columbia twenty million years ago and I haven’t been back to see the campus in decades. Although at the time school was really stressful and hectic watching this video did bring back good memories.

From France, this is absolutely beautiful. It's too bad y'all have to get in huge debt to go there

Gorgeous video. Amazing narrative. Feeling truly blessed being a Columbia Mom as both of my girls have been accepted by this prestigious school. One is going to get her masters degree from the Grad school of journalism and another one is going to begin her masters program from the Grad school of Public Health this coming fall, by the grace of Almighty🙏🤲♥️

Currently a graduate student in nursing at Columbia. Feeling extremely blessed.

Just like the other comments, I watched this video again and again throughout my undergraduate education. This dream of mine was so unreal, as an only child and first generation student. Now, I can also say I will be heading to my dream school this fall for graduate school!! This time I watched this video, for the first time, I cried. I can't believe my dream came true. Let's go Columbia GSAS Class of 2025!!

This is such a great video I think it's really symbolic of Columbia's general "culture" and really portrays a peaceful campus that is suitable for pursuing higher education

[joeboggio]

Coming here is the best decision I have made. I won't ever forget reading my acceptance letter, nor will I ever forget my time here. To me, college was always a dream reserved for other people. I decided that I wanted that dream though, so I chose to serve in the US Navy. After my discharge I was given a chance at that college dream here at Columbia. One year in and I can say fully that I love this school, and am proud to be a student here.

Damn. I am actually losing motivation on my college life when this video suddenly pops up and I could not tell you how fast I clicked right into it. Columbia university is one of my dreams. I am praying to get into it someday :> Thank you for this! This will be one of my favorite video now in yt.

[cameronburgess]

I really hope I'll be there in the fall!!

Edit: I got rejected besties :(

Columbia is a great school but studying in this kind of schools doesn’t come cheap, as a student your financial capabilities are limited to your guardians or in other case student loans. Starting up a side investment can be very helpful and would take the burdens of debts and the financial struggles of been a student away…

The universities in the USA are so beautiful, nothing elsewhere comes close, and I love the flexibility to choose a major several years into your degree. Shame I couldn't afford it.
