Ms Sawyer's Spring 2023 Advisement Hours

Dear Computer Science Undergraduate Students,

All students must meet with an advisor before they can register for Fall 2023 courses.  CUNYfirst web registration appointments begin on Tuesday, March 14th for Fall courses (seniors have first priority).  Details on advising are available at https://www.ccny.cuny.edu/compsci/advising. The advising period will run from February 21, 2023 - March 30, 2023. We recommend that you get advised sooner rather than later, as faculty may not always be available. Please read below on specific instructions and who to report to for advising.

Regarding your credits:

If you have EARNED LESS than 45 credits (check your CUNYFirst transcript, see example below), you are required to:
Have all required paperwork: Advising Forms Filled out completely (front and back) & current copy of CUNYFirst Transcript, (No need to wait for Spring 2023 grades to be posted)

If you have EARNED MORE than 45 credits see example below , you are required to:
1.      see your faculty advisor (according to your last name) first 
2.      have your CURRENT CUNYfirst transcript and advising form completely filled out (front and back) before seeing your advisor (forms attached to this email). If you are seeing a faculty advisor, you are required to make sure that the front of the form is completed by him/her. Forms NOT filled in completely or with just a check mark on lines 1- 3 will be returned back to you for completion.
3.      Once you have completed your advising and your form has been signed, you must bring the signed advising form and a copy of your current CUNYfirst transcript to the department office during the in-person days listed below starting the week of February 27, 2023

Whether you have under 45 or over 45 earned credits, advising WITH ME will only take place in-person. I will NOT be holding any advising sessions via Zoom. Do NOT send me your advising paperwork via email; you are REQUIRED to bring your completed advising documents to the CS Department during the days/times I have listed below. There will be no exceptions to my process.

Advising days & times to submit completed paperwork to Ms. Sawyer are:

Note:
Students who are NOT in good academic standing cannot register for Winter or Spring courses until their Spring 2023 grades are posted.  You may need to file an academic appeal to be allowed to continue on in the program.  You should still see your advisor now and complete/submit your paperwork, like everyone else.

Reply if you have any questions or concerns.  

*Example to see how many Earned Credits you have, example is listed at the bottom of your CUNYFirst transcript. The highlighted number is your TOTAL EARNED CREDITS. This number will determine if you see Ms. Sawyer or a Faculty Advisor first:
