Getting to the Campus:
The main entrances to Columbia's campus on Morningside Heights in Manhattan are at Broadway and 116th Street (where the subway station is) and at Amsterdam Avenue and 116th Street.
The best way to reach the campus is using the subway. Take the subway line 1 local to 116th Street (Columbia University) stop. If you take the 2 or 3 express lines, transfer at 96th Street to the 1 local train (the 2 and 3 trains follow a different route and do not stop at Columbia University).
More information, including driving directions, parking, and other public transportation options, is available from the Department's Maps and Directions page.

Attendees who have been offered support should keep two rules in mind. Reimbursement for air travel can only be made for travel on US Flag Carriers, REGARDLESS OF COST. (For example, travel on airlines such as United, Continental, USAir, and others that are United States based are allowable. Travel on airlines such as Lufthansa, SAS, Air Canada and other airlines based outside the US cannot be reimbursed by DIMACS.)
The second rule to keep in mind is to get original receipts for all reimbursable expenses.
