The deadline to apply for crew captain positions for the 2020 New Student Orientation Program (NSOP) is Monday, January 27 at noon.
Please note that if you are a resident adviser; have a role in COÖP, ISOP, or CUE; or are an Under1Roof facilitator or consent facilitator, then you are unable to be a crew captain due to scheduling conflicts.
If you are studying abroad during Spring 2020, please apply through our study abroad crew captain application.
If you are a Barnard student, please see the Barnard crew chief information and application.
