Each April, Columbia holds Days on Campus, a weekend long event designed to give admitted students and their families a taste of the university atmosphere. Surprisingly, the unimaginative term for the event is used only by Columbia University, a Google search did not yield any other universities.
Class of 2011 Days on Campus Dates
- Sunday, April 15 - Monday, April 16 Columbia College Days on Campus #1
- Friday, April 20 - Saturday, April 21 SEAS Days on Campus

Activities
Days on Campus organizes residence hall tours, overviews of the neighborhood (Morningside Heights), class sit-ins, academic panels, student group performances, an activities fair, free food, and a free t-shirt for you to wear when you forget to do laundry.
Columbia offers students the option of staying the weekend at one of its freshmen residence halls, Carman, John Jay, Hartley, and Wallach as a guest of the students currently living in the dorms. This is a good opportunity to meet future friends and get a glimpse of Columbia student life outside of Butler Library.
Should you go?
Don't feel that you have to go. You'll make plenty of friends anyway. If you can't make Days on Campus, you could try to do COOP. Or do both.
