<p>i am a freshman in high school and i would like to know what columbia really likes on the college application. thanks in advance :)</p>
<p>high gpa (3.9+ preferably) and SAT score of at least 2200 are pretty competitive; passionate commitment to a few ECs; it also helps if u are a URM, first generation child to attend college, etc. good recommendations also help.</p>
<p>Rackcity: you told another poster “no chance u suck”.</p>
<p>If you can be so certain about someone else, why don’t you apply the same lens to yourself?</p>
<p>would starting a club look good? and ib diploma and ap scholar at the same time look good?</p>
<p>Why don’t you actually email Columbia and an admissions officer rather than anonymous people on CC who may know about admissions but don’t actually work there?</p>
<p>And what T26E4 said</p>
<p>would they will reply if i ask these questions though?</p>
