To be considered for admission, students must be 16-18 years old, out of school for two months (or have a long-term absence designation), and have at least an eighth grade reading level. To begin the admissions process, interested youth and their parent(s)/guardian or other support person will need to:

• Attend a Open House (Open Housess are usually scheduled a month prior to the start of the fall, winter and summer sessions).
• Take a Stanford 10 Reading test at the Open House.
• Meet with an admissions and evaluation counselor for a personal interview, during which potential students will be asked about their past educational experiences, commitment to a full-time, year-round program, and personal issues that may impact their efforts at CUNY Prep.

Once a potential student successfully completes the above requirements, he or she will be asked to return to take the Stanford 10 Math and ABLE exams. Finally, successful applicants must attend and complete a week-long orientation at the start of the semester.
