CUNYfirst is the upgraded data system that has replaced eSims to manage students’ education and records; faculty and staff employment and benefits information; and all college business operations. 
 

• CUNYfirst plays a key role in the transformation of the University and the promotion of an integrated CUNY.
• It is a suite of software that replaces aging computer systems overseeing Student Administration, Finance and Human Resources that have served CUNY for over a generation.
• The overall implementation of CUNYfirst is being conducted in multiple phases over the duration of approximately five years.
   

CUNYfirst represents a change process which affects how business functions are experienced by students, faculty and staff.
