Guttman students can enroll in courses at other CUNY colleges if the desired course is closed or not being offered.
Guttman students can enroll in courses at other CUNY colleges if the desired course is closed or not being offered.
Note: Guttman students are required to take at least 30 degree credits in residency to graduate.
Note: An approved ePermit does not guarantee enrollment at the host college. Students may not take an ePermit for a First Year Experience course and may only take the course for which they have received approved permission.
What if I no longer want to take the ePermit?
Log into your CUNYfirst account and select the “Student Center” tile. On the Student Center page, select the “Academic Records” tile. From the left side menu, select “ePermit”. Select “Search ePermit” and the term of your ePermit. Be sure that the Institution is for Guttman Community College. Select the ePermit then click “Continue”. On the ePermit page, scroll down and click the “Cancel” button. If you are registered for the course at the host college, you must drop the course through CUNYfirst as well.
