Online Reservations
This system is for individual or group reservations. The room reserved will be in your name, but you can add additional guests to the room. If you need to adjust your reservation dates please email us at housing@tc.columbia.edu or call us at 212-678-3235.
Overlapping Reservations
Our system does not allow you to reserve a room for the same dates that you already have a room reserved. If you are currently in housing you will need to create a 2nd account with a different email to reserve a room.
All guests must be at least 18 years old to stay in guest or summer housing by themselves.
