Admissions

The Auditing Programs provide adults not currently enrolled in college with the opportunity to attend selected lectures drawn from Columbia University’s offerings in the Arts and Sciences during the academic year.

Applicants are encouraged to apply as soon as courses are posted, which is typically one month prior to the start of classes. Space is limited and seats are taken on a first-come, first-served basis. Learn more about the application processes for General Auditing and Lifelong Learners Auditing programs in Admissions.
