Please see below for answers to frequently asked questions. For further help with registration, contact cuevents@columbia.edu.

What if I do not have a Columbia University ID (UNI)?
World Leaders Forum events are limited to invited guests and Columbia University students, faculty and staff who must have a UNI. (Invited guests from outside the University do not register on this site). Please e-mail cuevents@columbia.edu with any questions.

What if I cannot log on using my UNI Id?
We apologize. Please e-mail cuevents@columbia.edu with a description of your problem, your full name, e-mail address, and a phone number where you can be reached.

Will I be able to bring a guest to the event?
No. Each confirmed registration is valid for one person only. Please e-mail cuevents@columbia.edu with questions.

I have registered for an event, but I will no longer be able to attend. What should I do?
Please refer to the confirmation e-mail you received. It will provide a link for canceling your reservation. If you do not have a confirmation e-mail, please e-mail cuevents@columbia.edu.

What if the event I am interested in attending is marked FULL?
Many events are expected to fill up quickly. If you registered for an event that is full, you will automatically be put on the event's wait-list. Should space become available, you will receive an email directing you to a Web site that will allow you to move yourself from the wait-list onto the event's guest list. You can remove your name from the wait-list at anytime and register for another event.

Can I register for more than one World Leaders Forum event?
Yes.  You can register for more than one event.

How can I change my reservation to register for a different event?
Please refer to the confirmation e-mail you received. It will provide a link for canceling your reservation. Then, register for the event you prefer. Please be aware that once you cancel your registration, your name will be removed from the guest list. Should the event reach capacity, you will not be able to re-register.

Will I receive a ticket?
World Leaders Forum events are not ticketed. When you register, your name will be added to an attendance list for that event. Please note also that you must bring a photo I.D. with you to the event. Under no circumstances will people not on the final attendance list or lacking proper photo identification be admitted.

Will I need to bring my e-mail confirmation to the event?
No. Your confirmation message does not serve as a ticket for admission to the event. You will be admitted only if your name is on the registration list and you bring a photo ID.
