As careers in science, technology, engineering and mathematics continue to be vitally important and in high demand, we offer programs and resources that serve as a pipeline to the field for underrepresented students, including some offered to students before college.
An associate degree opens doors to high-paying careers at the greatest value per course credit. Our two-year colleges also provide a lot of flexibility for students restarting their education, who may need remedial classes, or who need extra support on their path to graduation. They are also a great starting point for a bachelor’s degree with many two-year students easily transferring to a four-year CUNY college.
CUNY has a long tradition of amplifying student voices. By participating in student government, our students gain valuable leadership experience while actively working to improve student life at their college. In addition to providing a strong sense of community for participating students, many of these student government opportunities are paid. Our incredible student leaders often go on to public service and even elected office.
CUNY students have access to thousands of life-changing scholarships, including exclusive opportunities for students at each CUNY college. CUNY has provided thousands of students with paid fellowship opportunities through special student corps programs which provide paid professional experience and ongoing support. Additionally, dedicated staff at every CUNY college can help students find a scholarship or fellowship that’s right for them.
We stand with undocumented students, DREAMers, and TPS recipients on their path to obtaining a college degree. With “Immigration Success Liaisons” helping students at each college navigate CUNY, and our Undocumented Student Supports Page, we provide resources for all students, ensuring that the University is a safe space for the immigrant families who are the lifeblood of New York.
