While maintaining high levels of privacy and security, CUNYfirst will enable you to manage your instructional calendar, post grades, and email an entire class or individual students, directly from your roster.
You’ll work on your own schedule—from the office, your home computer or a remote location—and have quick access to student transcripts, class schedules, academic status and contact information. You’ll even be able to communicate with your students’ academic advisors and others who support their success —all through one integrated, Web-based system.
