Whenever we start a new endeavor, there is a learning curve. There are policies, procedures, systems, tools and resources that we need to learn before we are ready to get started. College is no different. Whether this is your first semester in college or you are a transfer student and this is your first semester at City College, there are things you should know so that you can be successful from the beginning.

Benny’s Tools for Student Success is designed to make the transition to City College as smooth as possible for new freshmen and transfer students. You can access Benny's Tools for Student Success in your MyCity checklist. 

Citymail is your official City College e-mail address. Once your Citymail account has been generated you will be notified via e-mail and on your MyCity checklist of how to activate your account.

If you have courses in progress then you must submit an updated official transcript. Also, if you took Advanced Placement (AP) or International Baccalaureate examinations, military training or service, or earned college credit while in high school, then you may be entitled to transfer credit. Log onto your MyCity account and review our Transfer Credit Evaluation Guidelines in the Transfer Credit Evaluation section below your checklist. There you will find instructions on how to send us your documents.

Advising for new students is an important first step on your academic journey here at City College, whether you are a first time freshman or a transfer student. Your advisors are your first connection and are here to help you plan for success. Once you complete your MyCity checklist, a link will appear in the New Student Advising and Orientation section that will allow you to make an appointment with the appropriate advising office for your intended major. Once you have made that appointment, you will then also receive instructions on how to participate in City College’s virtual New Student Orientation (NSO). NSO is another important step to building your community at the college. We will introduce you to additional major resources that will support and enhance your experience at the college.
