About Columbia University

Our summer academic camps at Columbia University: Columbia is an elite member of the Ivy League and a world-class institution particularly renowned as a center for research. Now over 250 years old, Columbia University is as rich in history as our country itself.

Originally named King’s College, the university was re-named Columbia in 1784 to embody the patriotism that ignited America’s quest for independence. Pulitzer Prize winning writer and Columbia alumnus Herman Wouk described it as a place of “doubled magic” in which “the best things of all human history and thought” were contained.

The campus is easily accessed by New York City subways and buses, making it easy to commute to this summer camp in New York. Columbia University is an excellent option for summer camps in the Tri-State area.

Note: We do not disclose the precise campus location of this New York summer camp until you register. Specific maps and driving directions will be found in your Camp Account.
