Student Association

The CUNY School of Professional Studies (CUNY SPS) Student Association is the elected representative and appropriating body of currently enrolled degree and for-credit-certificate students. The Student Association works to provide a forum for discussion of school related issues and matters of particular concern to the student body. The Association also develops and administers online and in-person social and cultural programming and activities.

The Student Association works to ensure the student perspective is considered by faculty and administration in all matters related to the School’s operations. The Student Association also works directly with the Office of Student Life to equitably distribute student activity fees.

Representatives have the opportunity to serve on various School committees to ensure the student body is represented in all aspects of School life. In addition, as part of their normal day-to-day responsibilities, representatives serve on the following committees:

• CUNY SPS Committee on Institutional Equity and Diversity
• CUNY SPS Commencement Committee
• CUNY SPS Faculty Student Discipline Committee
• Student Association Professional Development Grant Award Committee
