Applications for Summer 2022 and Academic Year 2022-2023 Foreign Language and Area Studies (FLAS) fellowships are now open. The deadline to submit an application is Thursday, February 10th, 2022 at 1:00 pm ET. Click here to apply!
FLAS fellowships are open to eligible BA, MA, and PhD students at Columbia and its affiliated institutions who are pursuing training in modern foreign languages and related area or international studies. At Columbia, FLAS fellowships for East Asian languages and studies are administered by the Weatherhead East Asian Institute with funding from the U.S. Department of Education. As such, these awards are contingent upon the availability of federal funding.
More information about the FLAS fellowship, including application and eligibility requirements, is also available on the Institute's FLAS and FLAS FAQs pages.
Dear Students,
In recognition of the difficulties our community has endured this semester, we write to share an update to the College’s P/D/F policy for this semester.
The College is instituting an exception to our existing P/D/F policy for Fall 2021 only, allowing students to P/D/F one course in their major, with the single exception of senior capstone courses. The P/D/F elected course will count towards major requirements if a passing grade is received. Students will have until the last day of class (December 13, 2021) to choose this P/D/F option and will have until the end of the second week of spring semester (January 28, 2022) to choose whether or not to uncover the grade in this class.
We will strongly encourage those of you who are considering a P/D/F election in your major to consult with your advisers and/or the department chair before doing so, in order to understand the potential impact on your course of study and cumulative learning in your field.
We wish you all the best with your studies at the close of the semester.
Sincerely,
Linda A. Bell
Provost and Dean of the Faculty
Leslie Grinage
Dean of the College

Doing that degree-audit arithmetic and need one or two more credits? **Be sure to check course descriptions for special registration procedures or necessary permissions.
