How do I apply to City University of New York?

I'm considering applying to CUNY for my college education. Does anyone know what the deadline is and if there are any specific application requirements or steps I should be aware of? Any tips would be appreciated!

Since you're interested in applying to the City University of New York (CUNY), you'll be glad to know that the application process is relatively straightforward. I can fill you in on some key points.

Firstly, you will need to fill out a Freshman application online directly on the CUNY website. In this application, you will need to provide personal information, and academic history, and respond to various questions about your interests and goals.

For the CUNY application, you can apply to up to 6 CUNY colleges. Be sure to rank them in order of preference as this will be considered during the application review process.

The application fee is $65. This fee is waived for students who qualify through specific criteria which you can check on the CUNY admissions page.

You will need your high school transcript to be sent directly to CUNY, either by your high school or through an approved transcript service. International students may need to submit additional documents.

When it comes to deadlines, it's important to verify the specific dates on the CUNY site as they can vary year by year, but typically, the priority deadline for fall admission is February 1st, and for spring admission, September 15th. Applications received after these dates will still be considered until capacity is reached.

Lastly, remember to regularly check your application status online through the CUNY portal. That way, you'll know if any additional information is required and when a decision has been made.

Wishing you the best on your application journey!
