IMPORTANT TERMS TO KNOW Pathways The CUNY-wide curriculum which took effect in the Fall of 2013. All students who
entered a CUNY school in the Fall of 2013 or later automatically follow the Pathways curriculum. The Pathways curriculum has three main components: The Required Core, The Flexible Core and The College Option.
DegreeWorks Audit Accessed through http://degreeworks.cuny.edu/; an online student audit that allows students to view their progress towards a degree.
Major A students chosen field of study, typically 24-30 credits. Major Specialization Form - All Weissman and Marxe students are required to have all of the
courses counting towards their major(s) approved by the Departments faculty advisor. The faculty advisor completes, signs, and submits the Specialization Form to the Registrars Office for graduation audits.
Minor A grouping of three courses, complementing a students chosen Major. Minor Capstone - A minor at Baruch consists of three courses, two of which must be at the 3000
level or higher, followed by a 4000 level course, called the Capstone course. Electives Courses which are not counted towards general education requirements, majors or
minors are considered electives. At Baruch we differentiate elective credits between liberal arts electives and non-liberal arts electives. Transferred courses numbered 7000 or 7050 are counted as elective courses.
Enrollment Appointment - A registration appointment day and time; the first moment (but not the last) that a student is permitted to enroll (register) in classes for a given term on CUNYfirst. This is not a live/in-person appointment.
ZKTP Acronym for Zicklin Temporary Permission. It is conditional permission built into CUNYfirst for eligible students to take certain business courses. Permission is based on business course enrollment criteria as outlined by the Zicklin School of Business.

PATHWAYS DESIGNATIONS & WAIVERS Once a student has met a Common Core requirement at one CUNY
college, that requirement will be met at any other CUNY college. Your previous CUNY school designates the course towards a specific requirement by assigning a Requirement Designation on your Transfer Credit Report.
Non-CUNY transfer students have their Requirement Designation determined at Baruch by the Transfer Center.
Students who transfer to Baruch with an Associates of Arts (AA) or Associates of Science (AS) degree will satisfy both the Required Core and Flexible Core of the Pathways curriculum.
Students who transfer to Baruch with an Associates of Applied Arts (AAS) degree may still need to satisfy areas of the Required and Flexible Core. AAS students must review their Requirement Designations for each requirement.
Students who have already earned a Bachelors Degree (2nd degree students) are waived from the Required Core, Flexible Core and College Option requirements.
