Columbia University in the City of New York Campus

The home basketball court on the bottom of Dodge Fitness Center. Welcome to Levien Gym!

Affectionately called "Low Steps" and "Low Beach" these steps that go up to Low Library are one of the favorite places for Columbia students to sit and talk or just look out of the rest of the campus. During the summer they are a great place for sunbathing. A lot of protests also take place on these steps.

Columbia has an underground gym packed with tons of equipment. An indoor track, treadmills, bike machines, weight rooms, basketball/tennis/squash courts, studios for classes- you name it!

This is Riverside Park where I usually hang out with my friend to enjoy my free time and see the wonderful sunset!

Life at Columbia can be hectic, but the community and opportunity for academic expansion is worth it. This video covers everything from food to the campus and classes. I would suggest visiting as many of the spots in the video if you come to visit.

This is one of my favorite buildings at Columbia University! Let me take a tour with you and my camera.

The Amsterdam Overpass connects Columbia's campus by bridging Amsterdam Avenue. It is a really picturesque spot and students really enjoy spending time there. There are also some interesting sculptures on the Overpass. One of these is affectionately called "The Tooth" and can be turned if you have enough people and are feeling a little crazy.

College Walk is a pedestrianized section of 116th street that bisects Columbia's main campus. Every student walks this scenic section of campus almost every day and if you come visit Columbia, this is definitely the first part of campus you will see after getting off of the subway and walking through the gates. In the winter, the trees are lit up with Christmas lights at a lighting ceremony.

Columbia's gym is very equipped. You will enjoy your time here! Don't forget to try the sauna room!

A band showed up on campus for an exhilarating show. I was on my way to take my classes, so I didn't have enough time to know more about the event. There are many events usually held at the lawn area in front of the Butler Library every semester!

Columbia University contains many great schools. The majority of the undergraduate population is in the College or the School of Engineering and Applied Mathematics. However, as students, we still have access to the resources of the other Columbia-affiliated schools such as Barnard and the Teacher's College. Barnard is also an undergraduate college and has its own administration, but is connected to Columbia. It is all women. There is definitely tension between Columbia College Students and Barnard students though because we share so many of the same facilities.

Imagine studying here for finals week. You're stressed about a grade or you really just want to get this semester over with...Right before the first night of finals, Columbia's Marching Band plays an array of songs (cheerful yet off-tune) and jokingly roasts Columbia for half an hour. This library is known to be a place of stress; however, we do still continue traditions that let you relax a little.

A place where not a lot of people study- but should! On a nice day, you can feel the sun bounce on your skin as you chill upon this park-like bridge. This is Narizza's must-see choice because it's the perfect place to reflect and envision an awesome college experience here in New York City!

This is an introduction of the famous Butler Library at Columbia. Most of the students choose to study at Butler!

Hi! I am happy to introduce my roommate Eva. She is currently a master student at Columbia University majoring in Statistics. Let's listen to her top three reasons for choosing Columbia!

South Lawn is one of the best places on campus to hang out with friends and lay in the grass. It is actually the largest piece of privately-owned, undeveloped land in New York City. It is central to pretty much everything on campus and if you come to Columbia, you will pass through it everyday. Unfortunately the lawns are not always open and they are gated so students can't always make full use of them.
