Entering First Year Advisement
Entering First Year Advisement Prep: Welcome to John Jay!
We are excited to meet you at an upcoming virtual Entering First Year Advisement & Registration session! Please see below for steps to take before your session to ensure that your time with us is productive:
- Watch this pre-advisement video (also embedded below). It will provide you with important information about degree requirements and course planning.
- Access your CUNY First account and have your CUNY First username, password, and EMPL ID on hand at the time of the session.
- Access your DegreeWorks and Student Educational Planner (SEP).
- Begin looking at your First Year Seminar options. You will need to select one option on the day of your session so take the time out now to choose one that you're most interested in.
- Begin looking at John Jay's General Education options for entering freshman students and take note of a few that sound interesting.
- Forensic Science, Cell & Molecular Biology, and Toxicology majors ONLY: take a look at your Science Block choices. You will need to select one option on the day of your session based on your science and math placement.
