The Ticket and Information Center (TIC) is a project of the Office of the Provost and the Arts Initiative at Columbia University. The TIC is a full-service online and live box office and information center located in the lobby of Lerner Hall. Since opening in January 2008, the TIC has sold over 40,000 discounted tickets to Columbia students.
Contents
Services
Through the TIC, Columbia students, faculty, and staff can:
- Buy tickets and/or RSVP to free on-campus events, performances, lectures and symposia.
- Sell tickets to an organization's on-campus event, performance, lecture or symposia either through the live ticket center in Lerner, the online system, or both.
- Buy discounted tickets to performances, films, and events in and around New York City.
- Get information about all the resources that the Arts Initiative, the TIC, CUArts, and Columbia University at large has to offer regarding getting involved with the arts on and off campus.
Broadway Shows
By special arrangement with Telecharge and select Broadway producers, the TIC has at last created an alternative to student rush by selling student-priced tickets in advance. In the past, the TIC has provided discount tickets to Broadway and off-Broadway shows including "August: Osage County," "Boeing Boeing," "Chicago," "Cirque Dreams: Jungle Fantasy," "Gypsy," "Mamma Mia!," "My First Time," "Passing Strange," "The Phantom of the Opera," "Spamalot," and "Spring Awakening." Discount student tickets normally fall between $20 and $30. Students can log in to a secure site through the TIC website to check the availability of shows and dates with tickets for purchase. Tickets purchased through Telecharge may be picked up at the theater's box office only by showing one valid CUID for each ticket purchased.
Movie Vouchers
The TIC offers discount movie vouchers for various theaters throughout the city. Voucher prices range from $5.50 to $8.50, compared to a normal ticket price of $12. Theaters offering vouchers or student tickets include AMC Loews Theaters, City Cinemas/Angelika Film Center, Clearview Cinemas/Angelika, the Film Society at Lincoln Center, Regal Cinemas, and Sunshine/Landmark Cinemas.
Registering Events with the TIC
Recognized students groups, organizations, and departments can all register on-campus and sanctioned off-campus events through the TIC through a request form found on the TIC website. The TIC will help groups sell tickets or keep track of event attendees through a RSVP list. The TIC requests that groups give notification of an event at least two weeks prior to its start date.
