General Education Requirements for Uniformed Members of Service
Graduates of the New York City Police Academy, New York City Fire Academy, or New York City Correction Academy who have earned at least 28 credits in liberal arts courses will be exempt from the CUNY Common Core portion of the College's General Education Program. These students will still need to complete six credits of the John Jay College Option (3 credits in the Justice Core 300-level and 3 credits in either the Learning from the Past or Communications categories) to complete their general education requirements.
