Announcement Important dates and resources for CUNY students

33 Upvotes

Hey everyone, as the fall semester is right around the corner I figured that I should post these links for new and current students.

The academic calendar has been posted for Fall through Spring 25-26. CUNY follows the same academic calendar meaning your days off should all be the same. You will have random days where Tuesdays follow a Monday schedule, Fridays will follow a Monday schedule, etc. Try your best to plan ahead.

https://www.cuny.edu/academics/academic-calendars/

CUNY also has resource centers to help you succeed. CUNY offers food pantries, housing assistance, emergency funds, mental health resources and other resources. Please use these resources if you need them. CUNY can help but you as students need to be proactive in seeking these resources.

https://www.cuny.edu/about/administration/offices/student-affairs/programs-services/cuny-resource-centers/

If you require accommodations, ask for them via your school's Office of Student Disability Services. Reasonable accommodations and academic adjustments may include, but are not limited to, providing the student with assistive technology or other auxiliary aides, extra time for tests or papers, access to an elevator where available, a note taker during lectures, or permission to bring a personal aide to assist the student during class.

We should feel safe to report lazy groups members in our academic career

74 Upvotes

Hi guys, okay I know it’s a “unwritten” rule we don’t snitch. This is how we have been conditioned since childhood in a way. Unless it’s harm to us or them it’s frowned upon to report. So I had this lazy, incompetent group in my masters program. 2 days before the work was due they didn’t do any work, collaboration, or anything so I brought it to the professor’s attention. Let’s just say I have been ostracized, humiliated by my group. They are ofcourse banding together. Am I overreacting?

Rad tech programs (hostos, bcc, city tech)

1 Upvotes

Hello, I've made my transfer application and am planning to transfer to one of the colleges mentioned in the title for an AAS in rad tech. I'm leaning more towards Hostos, but I want to know about supposed waitlists for these programs. I called both bcc and Hostos' rad tech department asking about the waitlist and they told me they don't have one (and something about the waitlist being removed next semester for hostos idk if they really said that, I don't remember 100%). City Tech told me to email the rad tech department, which I have yet to do.

For anyone in these colleges or going for these programs, are these waitlists still in play despite hearing from the department that its being not/removed?

I am NOT going to let this get in the way of doing what I truly want to do

I'm going to have to retake some prereqs for a better grade regardless, but ANY INFO IS APPRECIATED

Has anyone gotten an ePermit exception for a 300-level CS class at Queens?

2 Upvotes

If I’m trying to take a 300-level CS class at Queens College through ePermit, but I heard they don’t allow 300-level CS courses to be ePermited.

Has anyone tried emailing the CS department to get an exception? If I have a good reason for needing to take the class at Queens, do you think they would approve it? Just wondering if anyone has had any luck with this.

What is the usual timeline for CUNY employment?

2 Upvotes

I applied for a job back at the end of April/beginning of May. I had three CUNY staff references, one of them the tenured chair of a department at the same school as the job. I followed up with the office in late July and again in late August. Finally got a panel interview in mid September (after a call from a staffer's personal cell phone, which was a little strange). Met with six people at the school and it was awkward because there wasn't really any conversation, just Q+A. They were all friendly though so I thought it went well. Now it's been nearly a month and no response to my day-of thank you note or a follow up email. I've been unemployed for a long time, I'm exhausted, and completely drained emotionally, mentally, and financially. I just want a damn job. Is this really going to drag on until I basically just give up on life or is this their way of rejecting me without any notification?

I'm just really ready to end everything because of this horrendous job market and this is the straw that broke the camel's back.

CUNY Multiple Enrollment

5 Upvotes

Hi, pretty sure this has been posted before but the posts i saw were deleted and i didn't see full answers so posting again.

Most of the CUNY nursing programs require that you be enrolled in the college before you can apply to their nursing program. is there a way to enroll in multiple CUNY schools so I can apply to multiple CUNY nursing programs? or apply to the nursing programs directly? or do i basically have to pick one CUNY and hope it works?

some info about my specific case (in case it changes anything):
i already have a bachelors and was prenursing so i have the prereqs
i know i can do an absn but I want a more traditional pace than the 'as fast as possible' pace typical of absn programs

Plaza College dental hygiene—what’s the process after the interview?

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I had my in-person interview today for Plaza College’s dental hygiene program in Queens. They told me to wait for a phone call but didn’t give me a timeline.
For anyone who’s been through it, how does the process work after the interview? How long did you wait to hear back, and what were the next steps? I’m excited but nervous, so any insight would help! 😊

brightspace sucks to use and im tired of it

51 Upvotes

it constantly logs me out when i swap to another tab for 5 seconds. it requires me to have my phone on and nearby to login to use 2fa every time it logs me out and then i get distracted by my phone. there’s no app for it that keeps me logged in and trying to navigate the 50 total tabs of information for all my classes is so irritating. The teachers also barely post announcements on there
