How to Register for Women's Studies Courses

If you are a Barnard or Columbia student:

Unless otherwise noted, Barnard or Columbia students do not need to sign up for Women's Studies seminars despite the warning in the pencil book or catalog that the instructor's permission is needed. For all Women's Studies classes, attend the first class. If the course is over-enrolled, it is at the instructor's discretion if s/he wants to limit the enrollment and how. Seminar instructors usually keep their class size at an average of 20 students and often give priority to Women's Studies majors.

Students are encouraged to email the department administrator and express their interest in the course, unless the instructor prefers to be contacted directly by the students.
