 [On a purely practical/realistic note, many of us who were considering CA schools for the in-state tuition have spent all of our lives in CA and many also chose to attend undergrad at CA public schools for much the same reason. So I wouldn’t underestimate the sheer draw of a new city/coast/people in people’s decisions to come to Columbia. (I was extremely close to going back to Berkeley for law school, but I considered it a kind of copout route, having already spent 4 years there, and with the knowledge that I was likely to end up back in CA. It was pretty much NYC now or probably never.]

I attended admitted students day at both NYU and Columbia last year. They sold me the prestige of the school, the expertise of the professors, and the dynamic current students. Do any of you remember the amount of materials that Columbia sent to you after you were admitted? What else would you expect the school to do?

I do agree that the interaction between present and prospective students at the events follows a script. But we can easily change this: just make a conscious effort to be very thoughtful and as honest as possible in your discussions with admitted students next year.
