Columbia’s locating in New York definitely will give you more opportunities outside of the classroom than Dartmouth could, but Dartmouth is a still such an amazing school, and I sure you can still find great opportunities. Also, with Covid-19, location is less important than ever and many office spaces will not be the same, so you could theoretically still find internships working remotely. You also want to consider your chances of getting accepted as well when applying early decision. For Dartmouth you have a really good shot getting in Early Decision since you have such great stats and their Early Decision acceptance rate is also really high. Columbia has a low acceptance rate during Regular and Early Decision, so it would be safer to apply to Dartmouth and still get into an ivy league even if it isn’t Columbia. Many successful politicians and congress people have graduated from Dartmouth, so I think Dartmouth is a really good starting option.

Extra Note: Getting into graduate school is not as competitive as undergraduate so if youre willing to spend 2 extra years or graduate early you could go to graduate school at Columbia or even Georgetown for Political Science
