\"Columbia-Cover\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Let\u2019s face it, even if Columbia weren\u2019t smack in the middle of NYC, it would still be an amazing business school, so you need to make sure that when you explain why CBS is the school of you, you don\u2019t focus exclusively on the city, but include attractive aspects of the school itself.<\/p>\n

2 Reasons You Should Keep to Yourself:<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. You love the underground world of tunnels and subways.<\/p>\n

2. Sony Theater has the world\u2019s longest free-standing escalator, and it's only 11 minutes from CBS.<\/p>\n

2 Reasons You Could Share:<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. You\u2019re excited about the access and opportunities Columbia provides because it is at the center of an international business hub. And you can give specific examples of how you intend to take advantage of that accessibility.<\/p>\n

2. You love the cultural richness that Columbia pulls from its central location in NYC \u2013 from Nobel Prize winning professors to unique consulting projects to clubs relating to the arts.<\/p>\n

Listen, the fact that Columbia is in NYC is a perk \u2013 a huge perk \u2013 but remember, you\u2019re applying to the school, not to the city!<\/p>\n
