First Year Institute Program
The First Year Institute Program provides a variety of programs and support services for new and first-year continuing students during their first-year experience. All courses, instructional materials, and services are offered to eligible students at no tuition cost.
The Summer and Winter sessions offer a comprehensive integrated program that is available to students who need to fulfill required upper-level developmental courses. First-time entry criteria for all courses are required in order to participate in the program. Limited seating is available. Students may potentially take more than one course. Morning, afternoon and evening classes are available. Courses are scheduled in a two-week or three-week calendar format. Typically, classes will run Monday through Friday. Students in College Discovery (CD), Accelerated Study in Associate Programs (ASAP) and CUNY EDGE programs are eligible for the First Year Institute Program.
