Please complete this webform if you are participating in or leading the 2017 JADE program. All submissions should be made by Sunday, January 8th before your arrival on campus.
The program fee is $100.00 per student and covers food, transportation, and night activities during the week. Our application process is completely need-blind. We are able to offer financial aid support to students with a demonstated need.
All current first-year undergraduate students in BC, CC, and SEAS are eligible to apply for the program. All majors are encouraged to apply, as we want to focus on students who have had minimal exposure to the startup and tech ecosystem of New York!
In the morning, students receive instruction based on a web development curriculum for beginners. During the day, students will be visiting offices and meeting founders and other employees who will speak to them about the startup world. In the evening, after dinner and discussion, students will be taken on excursions in different parts of the city.
Jumpstarting Aspiring Developers and Entrepreneurs (JADE) is a week-long program that immerses first-year students of all backgrounds in the startup ecosystem of NYC.
International Student Orientation Program (ISOP) summer coordinators are undergraduate students in Columbia College or Columbia Engineering who assist Multicultural Affairs (OMA) in welcoming first-year international undergraduate students to Columbia University. ISOP coordinators play an integral role in shaping a positive orientation experience and preparing new international students to achieve a successful beginning to their Columbia University career. This position is open to domestic and international students.
The Student Council and Governing Board Retreat will include leaders from the executive boards of the ESC, CCSC, Class Councils, SGB, and ABC. We hope this will be an exciting and productive retreat for all involved. Please RSVP using the form below, whether you are attending or not. This will allow us to plan appropriately and make proper arrangements for transportation and lodging.
We will be leaving campus on Friday, September 15, at 2:00 p.m. and returning to campus on Saturday, September 16, by midnight.
