What happens to students who do not meet the CUNY standards?
Students who do not meet the CUNY standards in one or more areas should enroll in the basic skills programs which CSI offers. Such programs could be summer or January intercession immersion programs, remedial courses during the regular academic semester, or formal tutoring. Re-testing will take place at the end of such interventions. Please note that CSI students are expected to pass the three Assessment tests by the end of the first academic year (the end of the second academic semester). Students for whom English is a second language and who so identified by the University rules may have additional time to pass the basic skills tests in reading and writing.
