The University’s offices of Government and Community Affairs and Public Safety have a Campus Access Form that is open for requests from neighbors who live in the area surrounding the Morningside Heights campus and would like access (e.g., to use College Walk for easier access to the subway).
If you live within the following geographical area and would like to request access, please submit the brief form:
Once you submit the form, you will receive additional information on access requirements, including details for arranging to visit Columbia’s campus to provide a copy of your identification.
Please note: Campus access to guests may be suspended or revoked at any time if Columbia determines it necessary for campus safety, operations, or special events.
Make sure to bookmark Public Safety's Campus Access Levels page, which has updates about the status of campus openings and closures.
You can direct questions about access and the status of your application to [email protected].
