Cross Registration

The list of approved courses for Fall 2019 cross registration will be posted in September.

For Non-GSAPP Students

Students from other schools who wish to take courses within GSAPP will need the approval of the Office of Student Affairs– not the permission of the instructor. Student Affairs will provide a list of courses approved for cross-registration. This list will be posted on the first day of class on this page, and on the door of 400 Avery Hall.

Cross-registration for GSAPP courses takes place during the Change of Program period (the first and second week of classes) only.

Students may request to register for any approved courses on a first-come first-serve basis until the course is full via the online Add/Drop Form. GSAPP does not administer a waitlist for courses. GSAPP will not allow students to cross-register if adding the course would exceed 19 points.

Please note that all studios and visual studies courses are not open to non-GSAPP students.

For any questions, please email studentaffairs@arch.columbia.edu.
