Achieve in High School - Succeed in College Enroll in a Free Summer Program For New York City’s Public High School Students.

Summer 2026

The summer session begins for College Now students on Monday, July 6, 2026. Eligible students can view their class schedules in CUNYfirst for instructor information and classroom locations. 

When will I receive my textbook and when do I return my textbook?

The courses will use electronic textbooks or other digital materials. Links and access to these materials will be indicated on the course syllabus and will be available in the College Now Virtual Office on Brightspace.

What materials do I need?

Each instructor will provide a syllabus that will outline what any additional materials are needed for each course. However, students should be prepared with a notebook and writing utensils. Students may also use laptops or tablets. Please note that students are responsible for keeping track of their devices and personal property.

If I am struggling in class who should I talk to?

Students who have concerns about their performance or grades should speak to the instructor first. Having this initial conversation with the instructor will help students to express your concerns and get the needed support. Students should also communicate any concerns with the College NowTeam.

How will I find out my final grades?

Each instructor must submit grades within 72 hours of the final exam. Students can view grades in CUNYfirst four-to-five days after the final exam.

If I do not agree with my final grade what should I do?

Students who do not agree with final grades must notify the instructor and the College Now Team in writing immediately. Any change in grade requires a formal protocol with the appropriate officials of the College.
