Columbia University has cut ties with administrators they say helped admit Jeffrey Epstein’s girlfriend to its dental school through “an irregular process”.

Documents released by the US Justice Department as part of the Epstein files appear to show that Karyna Shuliak had initially applied to attend the Ivy League college’s dental school in 2012 but was rejected.

A few weeks later, according to emails, there appeared to be plans for Shuliak, a Belarusian national who had been studying at the Belarusian State Medical University, to enroll as a “transfer student”.

After Shuliak, then aged 22, was admitted, Epstein gave $100,000 to a public-health project run by Lamster, the dean of the dental college. Then in 2014, he gave $50,000 to the dental school’s annual fund.
