Academic Advisement
Marxe Advisors
Academic Advisors at the Marxe School continue working hybrid schedules and are available to meet with students in various formats. Advising sessions can be conducted via zoom, telephone or in-person via appointments (email is also always an option).
The offices provides academic advisement to both undergraduate and graduate Marxe students.
- Graduate Students (MPA, EMPA, HEA, MIA, OCMPA, Certificate Programs), email us at mspia.advisement@baruch.cuny.edu
- Undergraduate Public Affairs Majors (BSPA, Online BSPA, AMPA), email us at mspia.bspa@baruch.cuny.edu
All Marxe students are encouraged to make an appointment with an advisor using the Navigate App.
Appointments are required for in-person meetings
Remember to meet and stay in touch with your advisor throughout your studies to make sure you are on track for success in your degree program!

Searching for Course Offerings
Students can search for course offerings every semester using the Schedule Builder on CUNY First or via Global Search
Choose GRAD or UGRAD and your program’s subject (PAF), then search by the course code.
Students are encouraged to register at the date and time you are assigned (listed on CUNYFirst). The longer you wait, the less options you may have.
Registration dates and times are assigned by the Office of the Registrar and are based on total number of credits completed. The more seniority in your program, the earlier your appointment time/date, so graduating students get first choice.
Don’t miss out on important information
An Advisement Newsletter is distributed usually on Fridays with important information on upcoming events, deadlines, and other pertinent information.
Prior to registration each semester, students will receive information on best ways to connect with advisors to ensure you are set with your plan for the upcoming semester.
Don’t forget to check your Baruch email regularly!
Remember to Apply for Graduation by the Deadline!
All students planning on completing their degree requirements and graduating at the end of their final term must apply for graduation in order to officially graduate and receive their diploma. Late applications will not be accepted, so it is best to apply well before the deadline.
Students may apply through for Graduation via CUNYFirst using the pull-down menu in their “Student Services Center”. For step-by-step instructions, click here. Students who have been previously denied for graduation or students who are trying to revise their graduation date must submit a new Application for Graduation to the Registrar’s Office.
