Hi! I'm Jennifer, a Columbia University student studying Neuroscience & Behavior. Before coming to Columbia, I attended an international school in South Korea, so I understand the experience of navigating international education and the U.S. college admissions process. I'm actively involved in research, tutoring, and campus life, and I enjoy helping prospective students and families gain an authentic understanding of Columbia. Whether you're curious about academics, research opportunities, student organizations, housing, or life in New York City, I'd be happy to share my experiences and answer your questions. My goal is to make every tour informative, welcoming, and tailored to your interests.
