Columbia

中文结论 / Findings

• Columbia 本科新生申请页说明：申请人在申请过程中可以使用各种资源、工具和支持；但无论使用何种工具和支持，所有提交的申请材料须为本人原创、体现本人的声音。该页同时提示申请人了解入学后须遵守的 Honor Pledge & Honor Code 与 Generative AI Policy。[S1-Q1]
• 本科真实性声明要求申请材料准确、真实地代表申请人本人及其成就，提交前须确认同意；提交不完整、不准确或不真实的材料，可能导致拒绝或撤销录取、取消学分、停学、开除或最终撤销学位，申请人可能被要求配合核验。[S2-Q1][S2-Q2]
• 两页均未逐项列出 AI 的允许或禁止用途，也没有 AI 专门的处分条款，故归为 authenticity-only。S1 提到的 Generative AI Policy 链接至 Columbia 教务长的校内 AI 政策（与本站收录的校内政策为同一来源），适用于入学后的学生，不是申请规则。
• GSAS 研究生页已核验：须证明材料准确真实，并可能被要求配合核验；不实材料可能导致一系列后果。该页未明确讨论 AI，不外推到本科。[S3]
• S1/S2 在 2026-09-24 的访问均为 CloudFront 403，当时未取得正文；2026-09-25 在浏览器中正常加载取得正文，据此将证据状态由 no-verified-guidance 更新为 authenticity-only。

Official sources and selected original text

[S1] First-Year Applicants

• 官方链接Official URL https://undergrad.admissions.columbia.edu/apply/firstyear
• 页面日期Page date Not stated
• 范围／性质Scope / authority undergraduate / official-admissions-instructions
• 采集方式Retrieval full-text; accessed 2026-09-25 (Asia/Shanghai; supplementary retrieval, page loaded in a browser)
• 日期说明Date note The page states no publication date; it announces first-year applications for Fall 2027. The access date is not an effective date.
• 早先采集记录Earlier retrieval record 2026-09-24 — ordinary requests and the desktop Safari retry both returned CloudFront 403; no text was obtained or quoted at that time. A command-line request without a browser still receives 403, so the page was read only in a browser; no login or verification step was involved.

[S1-Q1] Tools and support; own original work and authentic voice

Students may utilize a wide range of resources, tools and support during the college admissions process. Regardless of the tools and support you may have used, we expect that all submitted application materials are your own original work and reflect your authentic voice. We encourage you to familiarize yourself with Columbia’s Honor Pledge & Honor Code and Generative AI Policy, which all enrolling students are expected to uphold.

中文说明：这是新生申请页 Accuracy & Authenticity 一栏的正文。它承认申请人会使用各种工具，但不区分具体用途，只要求提交材料为本人原创、体现本人声音；所提 Generative AI Policy 链接至 provost.columbia.edu 的校内 AI 政策，约束对象是入学后的学生。
