Accessing Final Grades & Transcripts

Students can access final grades by viewing their “Unofficial Transcript” on CUNYfirst. Please see below steps on how to view an unofficial transcript (for detailed instruction guide click here).

1. Log into your CUNYfirst account.
2. Navigate to “Self-Service”, then “Student Center.”
3. Under the “Academic” section, click on the “other academic..” drop down menu and select “Transcript: View Unofficial.”

In order to transfer your College Now credits to a non-CUNY college or university (e.g., SUNY, private, out-of-state) you must submit your Official Transcript to the receiving college/university. See below links on how to obtain an official transcript from the Baruch College Registrar’s Office. Note, only the Registrar’s Office can issue official transcripts.

• Online Transcript Ordering Services
• Requesting transcripts in person

Note:  You do not need to request a transcript if you will be attending CUNY for your undergraduate studies. All you need to do is provide the respective CUNY college with your EMPLID# and inform them you attended College Now. If you participated in multiple College Now programs you must request an official transcript from each program’s Registrar Office.
