COLUMBIA 101: Alumni Volunteer Interest Form

COLUMBIA 101 provides incoming students and families the opportunity to learn about Columbia's academic requirements and policies before arriving on campus in August. As a Columbia College or Columbia Engineering alumnus, we would love to have you present to welcome Class 2017 students as they attend sessions around the world.

A key tradition of this program is for alumni to present each incoming Columbia College student with a copy of the Iliad, a book read by every Columbia College graduate since the early 1900's. The incoming Columbia Engineering students will receive "Where Good Ideas Come From: The Natural History of Innovation" by Steven Johnson. Afterwards, alumni and students will have a chance to mingle, ask questions, and share stories.

* ARC: The Alumni Representative Committee

ARC members are graduates of Columbia College and Columbia Engineering who support the Office of Undergraduate Admissions by interviewing applicants, representing Columbia at local college fairs and hosting regional programs for admitted students, so that as many students as possible have the opportunity to learn about the unique Columbia experience firsthand.

If you are interested in learning more about ARC, we invite you to join us in select cities at the information session concurrent with COLUMBIA 101.

Please visit the ARC website and learn more about the ARC Interview Process.
