As many of you know, the Center for Advising and Academic Success (CAAS) and the Office of Recruitment and Admissions have been collaborating on in-person engagement activities for our incoming freshmen this summer. CLASS 100: CSI’s Lessons and Advisement in Student Success is an introduction to the fundamentals of college life. CLASS prepares incoming freshmen to successfully transition from high school to college and teaches each student how to get the most out of the First-Year Experience. For your reference, a sample CLASS outline is online.

Students will be required to complete virtual New Student Orientation via Blackboard and attend one CLASS 100 session. 

We have added one additional session due to demand and student arrivals to campus. It will take place in the Center for the Arts (Building 1P) on Thursday, Aug. 24 from 8:30am to 1:00pm.

The Student Services Fair will take place in the 1P Atrium from noon to 1:00pm. If your department/program would like to reserve a table and participate in the Fair, please contact John Kim, Admissions Advisor, by Monday, Aug. 21. John may be reached at John.Kim@csi.cuny.edu or 718.982.2012.

Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.
