Welcome

Welcome

Welcome to Columbia University from the Division of Student and Administrative Services.

This website provides you with some basic information and outlines several important steps you must take before your arrival on campus.

Best wishes for the coming term.

Things to Do

  • Activate your Columbia UNI and email address.
  • Upload a photo for your University ID card.
  • Review your Student Account Statement and ensure that payment is received by the given deadline to avoid a late payment charge. You will receive an alert at your Columbia email address when your statement is available.
  • Record your meningococcal meningitis vaccination decision online before registering for classes.
  • Complete a measles, mumps, and rubella record and submit to Columbia Health 30 days before registering for classes.
  • Choose one of three insurance options: confirm your automatic enrollment in the Basic level of the Columbia Student Medical Insurance Plan, upgrade your selection to the Comprehensive level, or request a waiver. The deadline to enroll online is January 16 for early arrival coverage and February 1 for spring term coverage.
  • Sign up for an optional Dining Plan or purchase Dining Dollars or a Flex account.
