    Getting into Columbia can be hard but as an Indian student you can get in if you follow some basic steps of the Columbia University application process, take a look - 

    • First things first, start by registering yourself on the application portal
    • Then, you would have to put your personal details and a really good essay on why Columbia?  
    • Now, upload all the required documents and pay the Columbia application fee 
    • At the last, all you can do is wait for a decision from the uni.

Columbia accepts around 4 applications for every 100 it receives. Its acceptance rate was 4.29% for the Class of 2029. NYU accepts twice the number of applications, at an 8% acceptance rate. You would have to work hard to get into either. However, at NYU you have a better chance.
