EDM Advisors will meet with you during their office hours, to advise you about courses you are required to take, to help you plan your curriculum, to evaluate your portfolio or transfer credits, to discuss indpendent study or internships and to do Grad Checks when you're preparing your paperwork for graduation.
B.A. students can be advised by any Art Department faculty member during office hours.
If you apply for the B.F.A. and are accepted, you will be advised by EDM faculty. If you entered the College before FA05 and are a B.A. student following the old EDM B.A. area specialization, an EDM faculty member will advise you. If you are a Transfer student, you will be advised by any Art Department faculty member, until the semester you apply for the B.F.A.
The schedule for Advisors is posted on the door of CG128, and also at the Art office.
For questions about Internships, contact Professor Hajoe Moderegger at 212 650-7406, hmoderegger@ccny.cuny.edu, CG 131.
The B.F.A. admissions advisor is Professor Ethan Ham. He can be contacted at 212 650-7409, eham@ccny.cuny.edu, CG 129 for B.F.A. admissions or portfolio questions.
Students in the B.F.A. program have the Major Code of EDM; students in the BA have the 111 code.
We have a handout that lists all of the EDM Program requirements. The handout also lists the previous specialization requirements for the B.A. in Art with a concentration in EDM.

EDM has a minimum 2.5 GPA requirement. A student must maintain a minimum 2.5 GPA in order to take EDM classes. Students will not be allowed to register for courses until their GPA is brought up to the minimum requirement.
CCNY has an Articulation agreement with BMCC.
Download the BMCC articulation.
You also may be eligible for transfer credits for courses that have been added since the articulation was signed.
Independent Study is awarded for internships, for special creative projects proposed once students have completed required courses, and for students doing Lab Monitor assignments. The Indpendent Study form must be completed and include a full project description before your register for an Independent Study course.
Make three copies of the form and have it signed by your Independent Study mentor. One copy goes to the Art Department, one to EDM, and one goes with you to registration.
Download the Independent Study form.
Program sheets are required by the College before a student can file for graduation. The program sheet lists all of the completed requirements and must be signed by a Professor. You can save time by printing an unofficial transcript and filling out the form yourself, before you meet with your advisor.

Grad Checks are not done during registration or during the first three weeks of the semester.
