• There is the main campus and the business school campus, which are on 116th and 130th streets, respectively. There are other law and medical campuses but it won't be necessary to go there.
• There are libraries and gyms available on all campuses. There is a track, badminton, swimming pool, and rock climbing as well for students to use. The facilities are smaller but accessible.

• I lived off campus initially and found the housing through a broker. Connect with current students and group chats for support. Try to stay as close to the campus as possible to maximise your experience.
• Most Indian students stay close by as it is convenient. Try to stay under 125th st for a safer experience, especially for girls. The university offers shared cab services for late night upto 3 am so its not a problem.

• 2 campuses - Main Manhattanville campus and the Business school campus.
• Both campus are equipped with all basic study spaces, classrooms and other amenities
• The main campus has larger gyms and play areas with bigger libraries.
• THe campus has events for all major festivals. On december 6th we have the tree-lighting, which is something that I am fond of.

• I lived off-campus. I found my roommates through college whatsapp groups and eventually found my place through online housing portals on Zillow. My rent was about 1500 a month and I stayed about 10 minutes walking distance from campus. I did not have much difficulty finding it. Columbia does offer their own housing but that is through a lottery system and there is no guarantee about their timelines and surety of securing a place. I would recommend everyone finalize their housing before travelling, or else things do get difficult

• The campus is very big and gated. Lots of buildings for different departments. We have very big libraries and study halls, which helps during exam time. Every community celebrates their festivals and cultural programs are held almost every month. Lots of free food events and wellness events are held to keep students engaged.

• Columbia is part of the Ivy league, and you can watch the teams take part in sports like basketball, football and baseball. There are intramural leagues that you can join, and numerous parks around the area which you can play casually in.

• There are online platforms like Zillow that we used to find suitable units. We had to go through an agent, had to pay a deposit and agency fee and had to have a guarantor. A recommendation would be to join the whatsapp communities as early as possible.
• Most people would be looking for people to room with, and the process would go a lot smoother with other people to help you out.

• Amazing, beautiful, magnificent campus with one of the most gorgeous libraries. Located right in Manhattan, its just amazing going to campus.
• The classes are huge, the infrastructure is beautiful land, and every building has a story. Columbia is the most filmed ivy and of course the stairs, the statutes, and the gym are just perfect.

• Search online platforms, Street Easy, Zillion, talk to brokers; I would say go for college housing. It sounds expensive at first but with utilities, its the same as leaving campus. Trying to find an apartment without visiting it can be very difficult. Be aware of scammers; search the realtors; try finding one near campus so you can use the campus shuttle to travel.

• Two campuses, one on 115th Street and one on 125th Street. All facilities are available including multiple libraries. A big gym and sports centre. Medical services on campus. Lots of clubs available for every interest imaginable. I was involved in the squash club and the policy club.
