Registration has never been particularly kind to the Creative Writing Department. Students apply for workshops right before the semester starts and have to get an Add/Drop form signed and brought to Kent, conveniently right downstairs from CW classes! the CSA. It’s not uncommon to hear complaints of a $15 “late registration” fee charged on top of tuition […]

Don’t worry—we’re freaking out too. Take deep breaths. Build your schedule. ssollolz via Wikimedia Commons 

In case you haven’t checked your email since the last day of finals, a new registration window for spring classes opens tomorrow. From January 8th through January 11th and from January 14th through January 18th, you’ll be able to search for a better Music Hum time slot and reconsider that Renaissance art seminar you were […]

It’s the first day of registration for freshmen, which means panic, confusion, and a lot fiddling around with color-coded iCal prototypes. If this describes you, take a deep breath. Log on to SSOL, and check your appointment time. It’s going to be okay(ish). The following are resources that’ll help you out as you plan your […]

Update: And we’re back! Go forth and choose. The bulletin is down for everyone. Or at least for us. At least you have another few minutes to choose between Medieval Literature and that Beginning Fiction workshop you decided on spontaneously. Sad faces all around.   panda not registering via Wikimedia

In case the drama about early-starting classes was distracting and you didnt notice the line in that egregious e-mail about registration starting, you mad. Point is, it’s about that time. So, get on it, folks and choose wisely. All the paper-filled doom you are feeling now will be all the worse if you’re taking a […]

Big schedule changes are in the pipes for Fall 2012, Columbia. Bottom line is that 8:40 am lectures and 8:00 am sections will exist. Today’s email from the Registrar is after the jump. Yesterday, Bwog met about the change with Barry Kane, Associate Vice President and University Registrar, and Margaret Edsall, Associate Vice President for Academic […]

This morning presents another opportunity to see a leading figure in world affairs. You might not exactly understand what it is that this person does, and you might not pay a whole lot of attention to what they’re saying, but you can definitely tell your parents that you actually can’t talk right now because you’re […]

The four horses of the SSOL apocalypse are on their way! Hurry up and register for that class that you thought you didn’t want to take but turned out to be full of unknown knowledge (or just full of easy homework assignments), as it’s the last day to add courses. Also, if you just don’t get MusicHum, drop […]

Barry Kane, voice of the registrar, emailed all undergrads on Friday last to remind us about the upcoming winter registration period. Accordingly, most of us have all forgotten already. So, here’s your last-minute get up tomorrow morning for 9:30 am registration (or later if you live out in the periphery) reminder. Sophomores, this is a BFD. […]

As we pointed out a few days back, the Registrar’s office has added additional dates for spring registration this week and next in hopes that it will allow for more accurate schedules going in to winter break. Now you have much more time to sit in class and refresh SSOL nonstop until that Art Hum […]

Yet another Monday. Fall Break is behind us, and Thanksgiving is still a while away. Seems like a fairly innocuous week, doesn’t it? Little do you know your every minute is latent with meaning. This relatively arbitrary sequence of November days is playing host to not one, but at least five separate “Week of…” events. […]

It’s hard to believe, but registration for spring 2012 (aka the last year) starts today for seniors! Time to squeeze in that last credit of PE before you graduate. Or maybe you’re looking for a more eclectic elective to take—if so, we’ve got you covered. And don’t miss out on our jaw-dropping list of courses […]

Today’s the last day to add a class so hurry up and sign up for that Oceanography/Karate/Underwater Basketweaving class before it’s too late!  

All of a sudden freshpeople everywhere are all in a tizzy, elbowing each other out of the way to get to public computers. It’s the first day they can register for classes. “I started checking half an hour before [my appointment time] and just kept hitting refresh,” said one ’15er. Here are some handy resources […]
