http://www.gs.columbia.edu/index_tuition.htm
This site does not specify a residence hall charge separately.

(Columbia is a) fully residential undergraduate experience. Almost all undergraduates live on campus all four years. 99 percent of first-year students live in one of five first-year residence halls at the heart of the historic campus, forming a close-knit community within the larger campus community.

The Columbia University Visitors Center offers information sessions and campus tours; class visits, lunch visits and overnight visits; and provides maps and directions to and around campus. In addition, the Office of Undergraduate Admissions sponsors Introduction to Columbia receptions, which are events for prospective students and their families from around the world.

Answer 2

Try looking on the Columbia website where all the details of the college are listed.

I'm guessing that anyone who is asking that kind of question on Yahoo is probably not going to Columbia - it is one of the hardest colleges in the world to get into.

Answer 3

Sorry - couldn't find an exact price on the Columbia.edu website - but I did find that they say living expenses are at $13,500.00 a year - but that may or may not have included a meal plan - see http://www.columbia.edu/cu/sfs/docs/Financial_Aid/School_Specific_Information/Continuing-Education/Cost-of-Attendance.html for more detail on what I was able to locate.

Take Care and Good Luck!!!
