Is it a bad idea to list multiple reasons for the "why Columbia" question?

<p>I’ve seen several people, both here and on other sites, say it’s usually best to explain why one or two things appeal strongly to you about a college in the “why” questions. However, I honestly feel like my response would be incomplete if I did this. There are so many reasons I find Columbia appealing, but I don’t want to come across as someone who just lists a bunch of stuff and doesn’t genuinely develop any thoughts about the topic, because that isn’t the case at all! </p>

<p>Sorry if this is a silly question. I’ve seen so many differing views on this, and I get more and more nervous each day.</p>

<p>I don’t think that’s a bad idea at all… as long as you are being honest! Truth is, if Columbia is your #1 school then you SHOULD have more than one or two things to like about it ! Good luck !</p>

<p>If you’re listing things like it’s in NYC, the intellectual and diverse student body, prestige of the university, then yes, it is wrong to list multiple reasons.</p>
