Established in 1971, the CUNY Baccalaureate
Program (CUNY BA/BS Program) is a small, University-wide individualized
degree program intended for self directed, academically strong students
who have well-formulated academic and career goals. Students who are
admitted to the Program work out an individualized area of specialization
with guidance from a CUNY faculty member who agrees to serve as a mentor.
Students also complete the Program's liberal arts core distribution and
other degree requirements. Students are able to incorporate independent
studies and internships into their degrees, and may be able to earn up to
15 credits for documenting learning experiences that occurred prior to
entering college. Although students in the Program are matriculated at one
CUNY college, they are free to pursue their studies and take courses at
any other CUNY college including, in some cases, the CUNY Graduate School.
Applicants must have 1) completed all remedial coursework, 2) passed all CUNY skills tests, 3) completed at least 15 college credits with a grade point average of 2.5 or higher and 4) set clear academic goals. The CUNY BA and BS degrees are fully accredited and are awarded by The City University rather than by an individual college. The Program operates under the auspices of the CUNY Graduate School and University Center. For more information, you may contact Gail Drakes, the Coordinator of the CUNY BA/BS Program for Medgar Evers College, in the Office of Academic Affairs, Room 3010 of the Bedford Building.
