Hi Sophomores!

As students in your fourth semester, we know you probably feel a little more at home at Barnard than you did a year ago. You have your routines, friends, and most importantly, a better understanding of where buildings are on campus! If you’re still looking for another extracurricular to be a part of and/or some new friends, we here at Lift Up Barnard wanted to remind you that we as a group are here for you!

In case you don’t know who we are, or would like a little refresher, we’re a student-led group dedicated to friendship and community at Barnard. Every week, we switch between having discussions about things like FOMO, stress, friend groups, and more, and having fun activities like origami sessions, movie/game nights, and other things like that. A few times a semester, we also take some off-campus trips to explore NYC together! In the past, we’ve gone to Hex & Co, Levain Bakery, a picnic in Central Park, and the Union Square Holiday Market.

It’s never too late to join our group, as we pride ourselves in being a welcoming space for all Barnard students, no matter what stage you’re at in your college journey.  We meet every Wednesday at 7pm in 227 Milbank. Reach out to us via email at liftupbarnard@gmail.com or on Instagram @liftupbarnard and join our mailing list here:  https://forms.gle/gccBFBzHhmWbUzcz8

We hope to meet y’all soon, and best of luck with the rest of the semester!

Love,
Lift Up Barnard

How to Drop a class by the February 25 deadline

 Friday, 1/31/2025 is the deadline to add a class, but you can still drop up to the February 25 deadline (after the drop deadline, you can withdraw with a W on or before March 27)

Follow the easy online steps below to drop a class on or before the deadline. 

1. Contact your adviser to discuss and obtain their approval

Best practice is to have an advising conversation where you discuss options and any possible implications of this drop on your full-time status or your graduation progress, but depending on how much you and your adviser have already discussed things, they may agree to review and approve your form without such a meeting

 

2. Submit the online Drop Request Form

You will only be able to drop online if your adviser grants permission. Be sure that you are not attempting to drop below 12 credits unless approved via CARDS or as a final-semester senior  -- the system will not allow drop below 12 credits without additional approval.

 

3. Once your adviser grants permission, you will receive an email informing you that you have permission to drop the class(es) discussed.

While this adviser permission is for the specific class you request, functionally it reopens your ability to drop in general, so be sure to drop the right class and nothing else.

 

4. **do NOT forget this step!!!** You will have two days to drop the class online via Student Planning.*

If you don't drop within the 2-day window, you will need to request permission again. 

*Note that you must drop on or before the drop deadline if you want the class removed from your transcript.
