Ivy League · A Great University in the Heart of New York
Founded in 1754 as King's College, Columbia University is the oldest institution of higher learning in New York State and a member of the Ivy League, set in Manhattan's Morningside Heights.
Columbia is known for its undergraduate Core Curriculum — every student, whatever their major, reads the same foundational works of literature, philosophy, art and music. The Journalism School administers the Pulitzer Prizes, and its schools of business, law and international and public affairs are world-leading. The campus is a classical quadrangle set into the city, with all of New York immediately outside its gates.
