Welcome to the Spring Ballots for M.S. & Knight Bagehot Students

Please carefully follow the instructions below.

1. First, please read the Spring Curriculum thoroughly. Some information has been added and some changed since the document became available.
2. You may read students’ evaluations of many of the classes and professors at http://www.columbia.edu/cu/journalism/evaluations/. You will have to log in using your UNI and password.
3. Please select from the list below the ballot option that best describes your status.
4. To complete the ballot you will need your Columbia e-mail address and PID (If you have lost your PID, please refer to http://deanstudents.blogsome.com/2005/11/14/faq-how-do-i-find-my-pid/)
5. The ballots are NOT handled on a first-come, first-served basis. As long as you make the deadline (Tuesday, November 17, 8 am ) you have equal standing with all other students.
6. If your ballot is received after the deadline, you will be placed in classes on a space available basis.
7. If you made a mistake or changed your mind, please resubmit your ballot. Your most recently-submitted ballot as of the deadline (Tuesday, November 17, 8 am) will be the one processed.
8. If you experience any problems using the ballot, please send e-mail to dos@jrn.columbia.edu
9. Please note we cannot promise students they will gain a seat in any specific class.
10. Students continuing with the Master's Project will be automatically registered for it.
11. Students may only take one class that meets on Monday/Tuesday and one that meets on Thursday/Friday.  This means that if your seminar is on a Monday, your workshop has to be on a Thursday/Friday.  Or if your workshop is on a Thursday or Friday, your seminar has to be on a Monday or Tuesday.

Please answer all questions carefully.
