Do you live in the greater New York metro area? Are you planning a visit for this April? If you answered "yes," we would love to hear from you! Each spring, the Columbia Undergraduate Admissions Office welcomes accepted students and families to Columbia for Days on Campus, an overnight program for students to learn more about life at Columbia. Parents are invited to meet with other families, students, and Family Engagment staff members to talk about the transitions ahead. Programming for accepted families also includes a panel presentation with current Columbia parents and students.
Role During Days on Campus: Panelist
Family Engagement is looking for small groups (no more than 4 per session) of parent volunteers who are comfortable with public speaking to join our Days on Campus panels. Following an academic and student life presentation by the session emcee, panelists will answer questions from parents of accepted students and share knowledge of and excitement for all things Columbia!
If you are interested in joining us for one of the sessions listed below, please complete the attached webform. Depending on need and availability, Family Engagement will contact you to discuss volunteering.
