Common things that engineering students must know
Requisites Violations Do not register for a course unless you will have satisfied its prerequisites by the start of the term (or are taking any co-requisites simultaneously). If you receive an insufficient grade in a prerequisite, you must drop the course; otherwise, you may be removed during the semester without a tuition refund. Dropping below 12 credits may also affect visa status and financial aid eligibility.
Advisement To register for courses for the upcoming semester (including summer), students must complete advising and obtain a signed advisement form. Please see the General Advisor in Steinman 421. Contact your advisor during office hours or arrange an appointment by email. Students should prepare a proposed schedule for the next term in advance of the advisement meeting. Please allow up to 48 hours for the hold to be lifted.
Transfer Credits To receive transfer credit on your CCNY transcript from another institution, you must submit a course syllabus in English; a transcript alone is not sufficient. Transfer credit is not transitive. If a course C1 taken at institution S1 is accepted as equivalent to a course C2 at institution S2, CCNY will evaluate course C1 (from S1)—not C2—for transfer credit consideration.
Course Substitutions If your choice of courses violates or doesn't satisfy published degree requirements (refer to the curriculum matrix), you MUST have written permission signed by the Program Director and the Associate Dean.
Permits As a CCNY student you can take a course elsewhere and get credit for an equivalent course here only if you apply in advance to take it "on permit," and get permission to do so. The permit requires approval of the Program Director and the Associate Dean.
General Education/Liberal Arts Requirements To satisfy the Grove School of Engineering general education requirement, ESE students must complete five approved courses totaling 15 credits, including at least 3 credits at the 200-level or higher. Also, ESE students are required to take ENGR 27600: Engineering Economics.
Students admitted or readmitted to CCNY in Fall 2013 or later should consult their major advisor to find out which courses will satisfy their major's General Education and Pathways requirement.
Residency Requirements ESE students MUST complete at least 33 credits of 30000-level or higher ESE courses at CCNY
Re-entry If you are absent from CCNY for a semester or more, then you must satisfy the new major requirements in effect when you return.
