DegreeWorks is CUNY's advisement tool that allows students to track the progress of education. Here, you have access to your GPA, letter grades, how far you are to finishing your degree, and classes you have taken and have left to take
DegreeWorks also has a variety of tools within it that allows students to explore possible majors or transferring strategies. An overview video of DegreeWorks can be watched here
The same credentials you use to log into CUNYFirst and CUNY Blackboard are used to access DegreeWorks. You can access DegreeWorks through CUNYFirst, or through your college's website
If you are a CUNY transfer student, your CUNYFirst account is the same as it was before. If you are an incoming student, new to the CUNY system, your CUNYFirst account will be provided to you via email.
If you are unsure about whether or not you received this email, please contact your advisor, or someone from your school to help you activate and retrieve your account as it is extremely important!
