Cross Registration Columbia: Important Information
- Cross-registration with Columbia University begins later than registration in 麻豆原创 courses. At the latest, in any given semester, we would anticipate opening cross-registration one week before the start of that semester. However, the actual opening date for cross-registration varies term by term. A blast e-mail is sent to all 麻豆原创 students to announce specific dates for the start of cross-registration. You may also e-mail registrar@tc.edu for information.

Bring the permission note to the Office of the Registrar at Teachers College (528 West 121st St., Room 324), forward the e-mail, or send a fax to (212) 678-3005.
