Columbia has many MasTTTer degree programs that admit 80%+ of applicants. They are NOT prestigious and are only there to earn Columbia money. They are CASH COWS for the university and prey upon prestige whores who attended TTT undergrads.
Save your money and get work experience.
Going to ZOMG!!! Columbia for a TTT MA/MS degree is not prestigious and you'll be paying back the $50k+ you paid for it for the rest of your life while Columbia uses that money to expand their TTT campus even more.
