<div>'''Welcome Columbia Class of 2012 early decision admits and hopefuls!''' You've clearly stumbled across our nascent Columbia Wiki, which is a work in progress. Numerous editors and contributors are working hard to populate this wiki with a number of useful, insightful, informative, and generally helpful information.<br />
<br />
For now please post questions on the [[Talk:Prefrosh|talk page]] if you don't find what you're looking for. An editor or contributor will do his or her best to answer your query with our collective knowledge as soon as we find time. See you at [[Days on Campus]]!<br />
<br />
To get started, you might want to read some [[advice for prefrosh]].<br />

There are 3 undergraduate schools at Columbia:<br />
* [[Columbia College]] (CC), the main one where you can study almost any major<br />
* [[School of Engineering and Applied Science]] (SEAS), the engineering school which is fairly well integrated with CC<br />
* [[School of General Studies]] (GS), the school for transfers and other students with unusual backgrounds<br />
<br />
<br />
The undergraduate schools have different relationships to each other:<br />
* the [[CC-SEAS Relationship]]<br />
* the [[School of General Studies#Relationship to Columbia College|CC-GS Relationship]]<br />
<br />
* [[Barnard College]] (BC), the all women school right across from Columbia University. It has an ambiguous [[Columbia-Barnard relationship|relationship]] with the University. Though Columbia itself does not count Barnard as part of the University in any official calculation, it does consider former Barnard students as Columbia alumni as well. Barnard students receive a degree from Columbia University upon graduation.<br />
