<p>I’ll say yes and yes!</p>
<p>need blind- my financial package was delayed for columbia, it arrived (I tracked it) the day before admission decision releases. which I assume by that time they had already been finished with the decisions (also my stats are below average, they’d have had every reason to reject me if they weren’t need blind).</p>
<p>Need based- columbia stated that they are need blind and need based for canadians. I received a package that covered most of my tuition and room costs. I am able to attend at the same cost as going to a local university.</p>
